xeyes revisted

Sunday, March 9. 2008

Do you remember the xeyes application? These eyes on the border of your screen following the mouse pointer?



This must be the 2008 variant of this gimmick ;-)

Not sure what I should be seeing, but on Linux and on Windows all I get is a grey Flash area with nothing in it.

The gimmick is in the flash object.

That I figured out, but the Flash object shows nothing. Not on Linux (which has some trouble with Flash now and than), nor on Windows.

Looks like a problem with your flash plugin ...

Looks like the Flash-movie is the problem: machine 1 is Linux 64-bits, a desktop system, machine 2 is a Windows XP 32-bits, laptop system. Both don't show the Flash-content, whereas other content (Youtube, Metacafe, picture slideshows) shows fine.

Anyways, xeyes is fun for about 2 seconds, so I guess the 2008 version is not much different ;-)

While xeyes used zero CPU on my 486, this keeps an entire CPU core busy. Definitely 2008. ;-)

At last something to do for quadcores on the desktop ;-)
