My grandmother (78) uses Ubuntu 8.10 and my mum (52) uses openSuSE with a config that I set up for her.

go here to learn how to install the screensaver plugin.
make sure you also install git using the command sudo apt-get install git-core
i cant get it to install on my system, im running ubuntu 10.04, is there a sudo apt-get line that i can use in terminal to get this cause the sites that i have seen where using git and creating folders is just not working on my system, following the step by step instructions and it wont do it. thanks

I use it quite often….

Use what quite often…? Fedora? Compiz? Vista? Aero?
