  • +1 for contacting Jamie directly, if that's not authoritative then I don't know what is. Commented Aug 24, 2016 at 7:47
  • I do wonder, though, if there are any savers made specifically to run on separate displays (that is, taking into account or otherwise making use of the bezel and offset placement/geometry)... Commented Aug 24, 2016 at 7:49
  • If there are then they aren't part of xscreensaver by the sounds of it. Multimonitor gaming can be configured to leave gaps between screens as if the pixels were obscured by the monitor bezels as this apparently makes things look much better, but I don't think X11 supports anything like this so it would be tricky to build in to xscreensaver I think. The alternative - custom xrandr geometry with gaps between viewports - may be annoying as the mouse cursor disappears for a while as it moves between monitors. Commented Aug 24, 2016 at 8:28
