[mythtv-users] Can't Disable Screen Saver

I thought I disabled the screen saver, as suggested in Jarod's guide, but the
screen saver still comes on every 5 minutes while watching TV.  This is despite
the output from xset, which appears to suggest that everything is disabled:

[mythtv at mythtv-server ~]$ xset -display :0.0 q
<SNIP>
Screen Saver:
  prefer blanking:  no    allow exposures:  no
  timeout:  0    cycle:  0
Colors:
  default colormap:  0x20    BlackPixel:  0    WhitePixel:  16777215
Font Path:
  unix/:7100
Bug Mode: compatibility mode is disabled
DPMS (Energy Star):
  Standby: 1200    Suspend: 1800    Off: 2400
  DPMS is Disabled
<SNIP>

What else is there that might still trigger the screen saver in FC3?

Help appreciated,

Derek
