Hi people,

I am a long time user of kde 1,2,3, and now i'm trying kde 4.

My suggestions aren´t direct related to KDE 4, but i think that the work are worth.

The two suggestions:

1) Multimedia keycodes that interrupt screensaver/blank/dpms: please see http://www.spinics.net/lists/xorg/msg43208.html (no reply from x.org guys)

2) When my monitor is off, blanked, in standby or whatever mode that it cannot display image, why the screensaver continue running and eating cpu? My idea is: kill the screensaver process when monitor are turned off, or SIGSTOP the screensaver process.

Thanks in advance,

Leo.
