Try disabling xscreensaver to make sure that it is to blame.
I've had the same problem with several different games, including
scorched3d, gl-117, njam, and others. I run Etch on an amd64 system
and an i386 system. It has happened on both, and I did disable
xscreensaver once to successfully eliminate the problem.
