Public bug reported: Whichever most recent version of gnome-screensaver got into Oneiric within the last couple of days constantly tries to dim the display and, in doing so, steals focus away from whatever application the user is utilizing.
This, among other things, resulted in this bug taking 20 minutes to fill, in a situation where 2 minutes would normally suffice, simply because I kept on having to click anywhere in Firefox to prevent gnome- screensvaer from stealing the focus again.
