When I use virt-manager to start the Windows XP virtual machine, the

Can you please try setting SDL_VIDEO_ALLOW_SCREENSAVER=1 before
starting kvm, something like this:
$ SDL_VIDEO_ALLOW_SCREENSAVER=1 kvm ....
and see if it fixes the problem?

Thanks!

Thanks Michael. I actually found out what I was doing wrong with
virt-manager (have to add myself to the libvirt group) so I'm using it
again. I even removed my shortcut to the kvm command so I'd have to
recreate it reasonable facsimile to do the test. I'll give it a try in
the next day or two.
If kvm is using SDL, wouldn't that imply that the Gnome/x screensaver is
also killed? Or do you have code to prevent that?
