However, if you have to ask, you probably aren't using the binary blob 
drivers, either directly from the OEM, in either the kmod or akmod 
package, unless it's been so long since you last installed that you'd 
forgotten about it.  And, to be honest, I don't know if that issue's 
ever been resolved, because I simply set my desktop to use one screen 
saver (I'd wanted to use them all, randomly, and that's how I ran across 
this.) as a work around.  Still, it's worth checking, JIC.
