Under Maverick, I experienced no problems with the stock screensaver. Unfortunately, with Natty I have experienced a regression to the fade to black and then back to desktop issue whenever I use caffeine to disable the screensaver, and then sometime later use it to re-enable the screensaver. I am

In case anyone is still looking for an answer, I've found a solution. I should first mention, I'm using Maverick on all my machines and I've only experienced the fade-then-straight-back-to-desktop problem on 2 machines with Intel integrated video, it works fine for me with Nvidia. Since the

Upon further testing, while my previous patch does fix a code path which results in the idle watch timer not being reset, it has not fully fixed this bug. There still appears to be a race condition in which the idle watch timer is sometimes not being reset. Try as I have, I have not been able to
