Try | Code: | | $ /usr/lib/misc/xscreensaver/glmatrix -root |
You'll need to have emerged xscreensaver and have direct rendering working properly.

Have you emerged xscreensaver?

I opened the GUI of xscreensaver and it indeed says that I don't have glmatrix installed...
I'm now trying to open gnome look to see if it's there... |

Plus I think you also need to merge xscreensaver with USE=opengl to get the opengl screensavers. |

Ok, Now I have it installed.
But nothing happens...
if I run the comand without '-root' it opens a new window with the animation correctly running.
But with root the it ends up doing nothing...
P.S.: i remeber that I want it as a wallpaper not as a screensaver. |

| That doesn't actually do anything for me. It runs but nothing ever appears on the desktop. |

Ok, XGl is the problem in this case. But, do not fear.... What you'll need to do is wrap the screensaver with xwinwrap....
First, emerge xwinwrap (unmask as necessary). It's CVS, so you'll probably have to emerge that too.
Then, | Code: | | $ xwinwrap -ni -argb -fs -s -st -sp -b -nf -b -- /usr/lib/misc/xscreensaver/glmatrix -window-id WID |
HTH,

Alright, I added the xeffects overlay to layman and I emerged xwinwrap, but the given command still does nothing.... 
The thing is, I don't have Xgl or AiGLX. I have 3d aceleration on desktop with the beta nvidia drivers..
The problem could be because of that... |

It worked!
But something is not correct in here... if I minimize all windows on the button that does that, I end up with my normal wallpaper....
It appears that the effect is an window with no borders that behaves like every other aplication... |
