Bug Description

Binary package hint: nautilus

When you right click on the screen your screensaver does not start. That means that if someone wants there screen to lock and not allow anyone one and they accidently right click it doesn't shut off. Could also be that it could burn the screen too, even though most monitors don't have to worry about it.
