Different Screensavers

« on: September 16, 2012, 11:03:18 am »

Today, the screensaver shows pictures of flick. Nice, but not what i really want to see.

Maybe it would be nice to show some interesting stuff of the system itself?
This way, the screensaver is not only a screensaver, but also a usefull tool...

I'm thinking of

Images of the surveillance camera's
Floorplans of the house with status of outputs (lights, power outlets...)
Floorplans of the house with security sensors
Health of the server (disk, cpu, mem...)
Other images (fe Weathermaps of cacti)
....

IME, if you have a SWMBO, she will be infinitely more supportive of LMCE in your home if you replace flickr pictures with:

* Wedding photos
* Family photos
* Favourite pictures of hers from Facebook
etc...

But your ideas are cool ones.
