>Description:
screenblank will blank out xscreensavers hard work.
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
It would be nice to have an option to screenblank such that it
would not blank the screen when it's in the 'colour' mode. This is a
solution that will work well for the colour frambuffers... I suspect
that the non-colour frambuffers don't have as much desire for fancy
screensavers ...
Dave.
