If you are showing a static screensaver (it doesn't really matter what it is as long as its not changing) the code is not sending anything to the frame buffer. The processor IS continuously sending data to the LCD display even when the backlight is turned off. Completely disabling the video subsystem so it doesn't send anything to the LCD at all is a very different task. It certainly CAN be done, there are registers in the processor that do this, but I don't think there is currently any way for the code running in squeezeplay to do that. It might take a new device driver to implement that.
