I have had the same problem on FC3 and FC4 without success. I have not 
yet updated to FC5, due to insufficient time, to try it there.

I have since begun using TwinView (nVidia's xinerama mode), where the 
screensaver kicks in just fine.

Not sure what to tell you there relative to a solution. I had posted in 
several places about it, without a satisfactory resolution being offered.

At least you are not alone...  :-)
