Refering my last post above;
Using xscreensaver (without using 'Display Power Management') works fine
for me, so if you encounter issues with the xorg screensaver freezing,
disabling the 'xset' screensaving features and installing/using
xscreensaver instead might be a workaround for you as well:
Install package 'xscreensaver'.
Add these two lines to "~/.xinitrc" (or whatever gnome/unity/xfce/kde startup
script you have):
xset -dpms &
xset s off &
Set this option in "/etc/X11/xorg.conf":
Option "DPMS" "false"
Configure xscreensaver with cmd 'xscreensaver-demo' and set it to use
"Mode: Blank Screen Only" and do NOT enable any "Display Power
Management".
If you sometimes want to manually start the screen saver, use cmd
"xscreensaver-command -activate'.
