[MPlayer-users] Disable KDE screensaver

[Paulo Rogerio Sabini]

	I see people asking how stop KDE screensaver.
	I am using KDE 2.1 and the script below to disable KDE
screensaver
and the DPMS during DVD playback.

	In command line I put an alias and in KDE menu
entry (usr/share/applnk/Multimedia/mplayer.desktop)
I put:

	ash -c 'energy stop; artsshell terminate; mplayer -gui -fs
-framedrop -skin phony -slang pt,en -vo xv -ao sdl -stereo 0; kcminit
arts; energy start'

	That stop the screensaver/DPMS and the arts sound server also.

	Paulo
