Description-en: Graphics demo that makes you dizzy (XScreenSaver hack)
dizzy is a graphics demo that rotates planes of patterns on a colored
background to make you dizzy. Textures can be cross-faded and there is a mode
that automatically changes textures, allowing dizzy to be run as a
screensaver.
.
This package integrates dizzy with XScreenSaver, but it cannot be done
automatically. See /usr/share/doc/xscreensaver-screensaver-dizzy/README.Debian
for details on the configuration.
