After upgrading to xorg-server-1.6 mplayer's option stop-xscreensaver doesn't work any more, so the screensaver comes up. Using: media-video/mplayer-1.0_rc2_p20090731 x11-base/xorg-server-1.6.3.901-r2 x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-180.60 x11-misc/xscreensaver-5.08-r2 kde-base/kscreensaver-3.5.10 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
Same here x11-base/xorg-server-1.6.5 media-video/mplayer-1.0_rc4_p20090919-r2 x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-190.40 x11-proto/scrnsaverproto-1.1.0 x11-libs/libXScrnSaver-1.1.3
Emerging and enabling acpid fixed this problem for me. S.
upgrade xscreensaver to the latest version(5.10) should fix it. another quick solution is add a '&' to the heartbeat-cmd: heartbeat-cmd="xscreensaver-command -deactivate &"
Neither upgrade of xscreensaver, nor the heartbeat-cmd works for me. With heartbeat-cmd in config, I get in console output repeatingly this line: xscreensaver-command: no screensaver is running on display :0.00 0
same here with media-video/mplayer-1.0_rc4_p20091124-r1 x11-base/xorg-server-1.7.3.902 x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-190.53 x11-proto/scrnsaverproto-1.2.0 x11-libs/libXScrnSaver-1.2.0 x11-misc/xscreensaver-5.10 kde-base/kscreensaver-3.5.10 acpid is running
Just wandering... does anyone experience this issue and not using kde-base/kscreensaver:3.5? Maybe it's the combination of kscreensaver:3.5 and some "latest" (since xorg-server-1.6 went stable) upgrade.
It works again with latest stable versions (I guess it was something in xorg-server or related packages).
