Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: electricsheep

Version: 
electricsheep 2.6.8-2ubuntu1 
xscreensaver 4.24-4ubuntu2
(both from the ubuntu repositories)

Description:
This issue affects systems using NVIDIA dual-monitor setups with Twinview 
enabled.  My desktop, as an example, uses 2048x768 resolution.

When the computer goes idle, xscreensaver launches two seperate
instances of each screensaver, one on each monitor, each with a
resolution of 1024x768.  This works correctly on all other screensavers.
However, when electricsheep is launched, xscreensaver correctly launches
two instances, but both instances of electricsheep believe the screen
resolution to be 2048x768.  This results in only half of the video
appearing.

I poked around in the documentation and code, and there seems to be no
way to pass parameters to either electricsheep or to mpeg2dec_onroot
that will allow for correct resolution to be specified.
