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.
