where is the xscreensaver directory?


I'm trying to set the background as the matrix screensaver by following this tutorial, but I just can't find the directory where xscreensaver stores its screensavers! no fun

On my system (Slackware13) the xscreensavers appear to be stored in /usr/libexec/xscreensaver.

No problem -- I just fired up pkgtool and had a look at the files that came with the xscreensaver package
