supertux and penguin racer jump out of fullscreen

[old_toby]

Binary package hint: supertux

When I'm playing supertux (stable or development) or penguin racer if fullscreen mode, it sometimes jumps out of fullscreen all of a sudden and is then shown in a normal window, and the keys don't work for about 10 seconds. Then I go on playing and after maybe 1 minute it jumps back to fullscreen.

How to reproduce: Play for a while.

It seems the problem only appears with compiz running, at least with AIGLX (ati fglrx driver). I don't know about XGL, because with that, supertux is soooo slow it's not playable.

It's because the screensaver starts. Turn it off and it won't happen again.

This bug still exists in Hardy Heron 8.04.1.

It is very annoying especially if you set the screen saver timeout to a low number (e.g. 2 minutes).

It looks like the Ubuntu box thinks it is inactive and tries to start the screen saver when you are really playing a game!

I am not sure if this is a Ubuntu bug or a SuperTux bug.

It is very annoying. Please fix.
