However, the xdg-utils-1.0.2 in openSUSE 12.1 does not support Gnome 3. So the xdg-screensaver shipped with openSUSE 12.1 has no effect when trying to inhibit the screensaver, as it still uses the removed --poke option of gnome-screensaver-command. Unfortunately, there has not been an official stable release of xdg-utils at freedesktop.org since version 1.0.2: 1.1.0-rc1 was released in January 2011, but it is still missing this functionality. Rex Dieter of Fedora implemented the D-Bus API for GNOME screensaver in patch [1] on 31 March 2011, Fedora ships with his patches applied. Since both the video players (MPlayer and VLC, namely) and GNOME marked this interoperability issue as "won't fix", the way to go is fixing xdg-screensaver. This patch should be included in openSUSE.
