Title: Disabling (or handling) screensaver during installation 
  
openSUSE-11.1: New
Priority 
    Requester: Desirable 
 
Requested by: locilka@xxxxxxxxxx
Partner organization: openSUSE.org 
 
Description: 
We currently have screen-saver active during installation/upgrade. This is a 
bit problematic when some exception occurs and opens a pop-up window requesting 
some user-decision (Abort/Retry/Ignore/...).

On slower networks, installation can take tens of minutes, even a few hours. It 
would be nice to disable the screen-saver (easy) or at least handle all the 
exceptions by disabling the screen-saver.
