Bug Description

Hi,

Bug:

xscreensaver is unusable (do not starts) when the Ubuntu desktop is in overview mode

To reproduce:

Press "window" key and get the overview mode. Wait for xscreensaver start, no effect.

The real security problem here is that user that need the saver to start have always to check if he/she not pressed the window key occasionally. Moreover - this is real security hole for normal users that expect xscreensaver start _always_.
