Bug Description
I've got a dual screen setup (running Nvidia's drivers and two monitors off one graphics card). When I work on one screen exclusively for the screensaver timeout amount of time, the screensaver starts dimming the screen regardless. Quick fix is to move mouse onto the other screen, which instantly stops the dimming and resets the 'countdown'. Surely the screensaver or whatever algorithm detecting idle time should be able to detect activities on whatever is the 'non primary' screen?
