Solarsystem is a screensaver, for Linux and UNIX systems, that displays the planets of the Solar System (inc Pluto).

A random planet is chosen and rotated on screen against a starfield background. As the planet orbits the sun, it transitions from light into darkness and a corona effect appears.

What is new in this release:

  • Fixed: Build time fixes for newer distros which use --as-needed as a default GCC option

What is new in version 0.2.1:

  • Fixed: Improved building scripts for newer distros
  • Fixed: Now doesn't display cursor. Thanks to "druciferre"

What is new in version 0.2:

  • Fixed: Minor change to the build scripts to fix compilation on distros using the new DSO changes to ld (eg Fedora 13).
  • Added: Smoothed starfield points for OpenGL/Hardware implementations which support it.
  • Fixed: Don't show in KDE 'Lost & Found' menu if both KDE and Gnome versions are installed.

Requirements:

  • KDE Plasma
