When using Gnome on Lenny,If the user starts typing while a screensaver is operating, the characterrepresenting the first keypress is lost. Is there a way that the screensaver can send this character to the focused application?
You may achieve that by "disabling" the screensaver and relying on the Gnome Power Options to blank your monitor instead (say, by setting the monitor to standby after a given amount of minutes). In this case, the screensaver won't kick in, but it will still be used for detecting "idle" system condition. The actual timeout taken by the monitor to standby is the sum of the two timeouts (when you slide the screensaver timeout slider, you can watch the Gnome Power Options slider move accordingly, to reflect that).
Of course, this way, any fancy screensaver (company logo) you may have in place will be lost.
