- Moire and Blackout work fine...
-
- From the FAQ:
- ===
- 7) What screen-savers are compatible with A/UX?
-
- Moire (ver. 3.22) and BlackOut work quite well under A/UX (2&3), even under
- the Login screen. AfterDark (2.0u and later) also works but some displays
- may not have enough memory under Login. It appears that BlackOut may not
- work correctly in environments with 2 (or more) monitors.
-
- Darkside is also available. Unlike other screen savers, Darkside is an
- application, not an INIT. This means it won't work under the Login screen.
- The latest version of Darkside is 3.1.1 and will _not_ work on Pre-System7
- systems, so don't attempt to use this under A/UX 2.0.1.

- Both are available here on jagubox
