Description Leena Gunda 2004-05-25 08:57:09 UTC 
Have any popup menu open, say panel menu/desktop menu. The xscreensaver doesn't
start after the specified idle time. This is because the menu has the pointer
and keyboard grab and so xscreensaver can't grab it.

Is this something we can fix from GNOME side in any way? Kindly comment.

Basically, not fixable.
