  I also upgraded to Moire 3.0 and, though I enjoy the Dyson's Folly pattern,
I dislike a bug I have gotten on my SE/30 as well as on a friend's Plus.
About 5-10 minutes of running, the screen saver will jump to the 'options
screen' (as if you had hit the space bar).  The options will stay there
for about a second and the the pattern will return.  HOWEVER, the first
x lines (where x is the number of lines you have set in your prefs) do not
get erased as the pattern moves on!  So that in effect you get a snapshot of
the pattern that sits there while the pattern moves on its merry way.
   I find it most annoying, and have seen other computers on campus that
showed the same problem (though a Mac II w/ color monitor didn't...)
       I've fiddled with it and can find no solution.
