Thanks riverfr0zen, your post has been great in clarifying this long standing issue for me.
I have also discovered that with a fresh install of 7.10 I can play dvds using Movie Player without any cut off of video and without any changes to the default screensaver. Might be an alternative to modifying the default screensaver for some, like me, that forget mods made at a later date and just want to stream and play dvds from disc. rgds Bob -- Screen blanks after ten minutes when watching video in Mplayer with XGL and Compiz Fusion turned on https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/125947 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
