[SWLUG] Re: BBC climate change

[James]

Mines been running for about 15 hours and its reached 27/05/1921 (0.31%) 
(using Suse 10 Athlon 64 3200). Is there a way to dedicate more 
resources to it? It always seems as if its not using its full potential.

What about the screensaver? Is this available in Linux?
