electricsheep

[twager]

Anyone managed to install electricsheep ?I have tried compiling it from source but errors prevail
I have Arch Linux on my other box and it compiles ok there...

[Valtam]

Never heard of it. Do you have a link?

electricsheep is a screensaver which runs ok in Arch and Slackware but I cannot get it to run in any
of the buntu based distros.

Found this. It seemed to work out OK in Ubuntu 14.04 for these guys. LL2 is based on Ubuntu 14.04
