Electricsheep is a distributed screensaver. It realizes the collective dream of sleeping computers from all over the internet. When the screen-saver is activated, the screen goes black and an animated 'sheep' appears. Behind the scenes, the screen-saver contacts an internet server and joins the parallel computation of new sheep.

Does anybody know how much network activity does this port use? After unable to do networking for more than 15 minutes I decided that it's not good enough for my 56Kb modem. And standalone didn't really make me happy. Edwin -- Edwin Groothuis | Personal website: http://www.MavEtJu.org edwin@mavetju.org | Interested in MUDs?

Oops, I'm not sure why it gave me the xsetbg not found error. The dependencies are good. As far as running it, I've never gotten Electric Sheep to work properly except in standalone. This port acts the same as my attempts to port it. (I'm using ADSL) I would not doubt that I'm doing something wrong though. This is what usually happens to me: electricsheep downloads about 11 Megabytes worth of mpeg files, then numerous errors like the following are shown: X Error of failed request: BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied) Major opcode of failed request: 2 (X_ChangeWindowAttributes) Serial number of failed request: 103 Current serial number in output stream: 106 subprocess error: play decoder, 256=1<<8+0
I have updated the .shar file, the url is the same it initially uses a lot of bandwitch to download the sheep, but once it does it uses very little bandwith please let me know if you see any other issues...
