Bug#315926: Does not stop xscreensaver anymore

Still seeing this behavior with 1.4.5-1, totem-xine. I've used the Gnome
menu (Debian -> Screen -> Save -> Disable XScreensaver) to disable the
screensaver, and I am still seeing the blanking. I found that disabling
DPMS in xorg.conf and restarting X helped to fix the behavior. Perhaps
if gnome screensaver is not running, totem doesn't do anything to
prevent screen blanking, thus allowing either xscreensaver or DPMS to
blank the screen, even if it is supposed to fallback on xscreensaver
events, which may not be enough to prevent DPMS from kicking in if
neither screensaver is running.
