Okay...
I like stout beers, next meeting :).
Here is how it is done with xscreensaver:
I don't compile with explict cli. so I create my php file (in this case
it can be anything.. i.e. test.php
<? print_r($GLOBALS); ?>
it is in my home dir ~joeldg/projects/screensave/test.php
create a launch file with
`/usr/bin/php /home/joeldg/projects/screensave/mview.php`
chmod +x launch
now as root
ln -s ~joeldg/projects/screensave/launch /usr/lib/xscreensaver/test
cp /usr/share/control-center/screensavers/galaxy.xml
/usr/share/control-center/screensavers/test.xml
gvim /usr/share/control-center/screensavers/test.xml
change galaxy to test
`xscreensaver-demo`
select "test" and "preview"
and it also works with php-gtk apps (tested)
