Sure, this is a gap. I suggest we first file a feature request at 
bugs.meego.com if there isn't one. This way it'll be convenient for us to track 
and fix it in future MeeGo release.

Thanks,
Forrest

image?

I know in Android it's possible to do this programmatically (and screen blank 
control rights are part of what you have to accept when installing such an 
app).  I believe we'll have to provide something similar. individual apps 
shouldn't need to (or be allowed to) fiddle the system in the ways suggested 
below. What happens after the app quits?  Screen blank is still off...

In general it's related to DPMS or screen saver daemon. Try the below 2 methods 
as is suggested at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=639639

1 xset s off; xset -dpms
2 kill the screensaver daemon on your system

Thanks,

Hi all,

  Because we need to run application on handset image with screen non-black for 
long time.
  After I remove libXScrnSaver, xorg-x11-proto-scrnsaverproto, but the screen 
will turn black all the same.

  Here, anyone know how to disable screensaver?

  Thanks

best wishes
Junmin Zhu
