  There aren't any screensavers built. When I first did the syscons 
code, I looked at a few and they wanted to do PC-style video mode 
changing. The ones that didn't (blank) were then dependent on splash, 
and I think my patience ran out around there.

  I'm sure something could be tweaked to work.

later,

Peter.
