Title: Is this thing on?
Post by: mindea on October 06, 2005, 06:13:52 AM

This must seem like a strange request, but I'd like it if the E-Smith server could display something interesting on the screen. Currently we have a choice of the Server Manager, which goes blank after x minutes, or a login prompt.

Is there something that could run all the time that would maybe show text scrolling past, maybe with colors, that makes it apparent the server is doing something? That would be very cool.

I'll be interested to see what people come up with
