Yes this bug affects me too. While working in the guest, the host screen saver is inhibited (by vmware) which is correct, but it seems that the screensaver is unaware of any activity in the guest. So as soon as the mouse moves outside of the guest host desktop, the screensaver immediately starts. Insecure, and a right pain. But the bug 49579 seems a different issue to me. I have used vmware since Feisty and never had this issue before. But whether its a vmware bug or an Ubtuntu one I have no idea. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-screensaver in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/485727 Title: gnome-screensaver incorrectly monitors activity in virtual machines -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
