Comment:
When playing a game you should still be using the computer--mouse and
keyboard input should be detected and screensaver should not activate.
If this is not the case, then this is definitely a bug.
If you actually are not pressing any buttons in your game for longer
than your -chosen- screensaver timeout, then (that game really sucks!)
you should just increase the screensaver idle timeout setting, and
contact the game developer to ask them to disable screensaver on their
game. I do find it rather odd that a game would have that long of a no-
input sequence as to activate the screensaver. Maybe you just have it
set ridiculously low (<10 min?)...
