I read on slashdot that in X you can implement any OpenGL screensaver as your background...

I'd sure like to know how...

There's a program called backlight (http://freshlysqueezedsoftware.com/products/freeware.fss) that will do it for you. You can do it from the command line as well. Not sure what the command is though.
