This is really irritating.  As a workaround, I've removed the gnome-
screensaver package, in the hope that'll prevent the screensaver ever
kicking in.

My problem is, I want to play full-screen OpenGL games, possibly for
longer than 1 hour at a time :)  I can't trust that the game will
inhibit the screen-saver, which is why I always disable it.  This is
apparently not possible in Oneiric, due to this bug.

** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Confirmed
