#1873 new defect

Screensaver is activated after exiting game

Description

On Ubuntu 12.10, if I leave a game unattended for a long period of time, then return to the computer and exit it, my screensaver pops up immediately after the game shuts down.

I don't know what other games do, but it would be nice if the screensaver was suppressed altogether somehow whilst the game is running.

SDL2 has ​SDL_DisableScreenSaver, I assume we'd only want to use that when the game had focus, perhaps only in fullscreen mode?

Replying to historic_bruno:

Yep, sounds right.
