A while ago I came across a computer at the place where I work, It was running Mandrake 7.2 and had a really nice looking desktop, but what caught my eye the most was the fact that there was a screensaver running in the background, I think it was a snowing screensaver with a small santa that went across the screen. Here is the stuff I want to know;

1. How do I get a screensaver to load up automatically when I login to Enlightenment, Gnome and KDE? I know you can type in a command to start it but I want it to start as soon as I login and remain there the next time I login.

2. Does anyone know where I can get that snowing screensaver?

I've got a 800mhz cpu, so the comp can handle the screen saver.

Thank's alot in advance guys.
