Hi,
Erich Schubert wrtoe:
So far, everybody has been telling me this (screensaver not being
blocked) is a SDL problem.
It should be mainly a question of the SDL version that you are using - in
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/enigma-devel/2008-01/msg00003.html I
stated the version dependency:
SDL 1.2.10 introduced disabling of the screensaver per default while Enigma is
running.
SDL 1.2.11 introduced environment SDL_VIDEO_ALLOW_SCREENSAVER to reallow a
screensaver optionally.
Up to SDL 1.2.9 the screensaver will not be disabled by SDL applications.
Note that SDL versions 1.2.12 and above may cause problems in the Gamma
handling. At least on Windows SDL crashes internally on the first Gamma
set operation.
Please report your experience concerning SDL screensaver feature and
gamma stability.
If you are using GNOME, you can run this in a terminal window:
gnome-screensaver-command --inhibit
(it will not quit - just leave it running!)
Then run enigma. When you're done with Enigma, press Ctrl+C on the
inhibit command, and your screensaver should be working again.
Closing the terminal window should also stop the inhibit command.
Greets,
Ronald
