so i have upgraded to Ubuntu 12.10 and i installed smplayer from the repositories. The thing is when i play a movie (even in full screen) the screen saver comes up. I have to disable screensaver enabled in smplayer but it doesn't seem to work

apt-cache policy mplayer
mplayer:
  Installed: 2:1.0~rc4.dfsg1+svn34540-1ubuntu2
  Candidate: 2:1.0~rc4.dfsg1+svn34540-1ubuntu2
  Version table:
 *** 2:1.0~rc4.dfsg1+svn34540-1ubuntu2 0
        500 http://pt.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ quantal/universe amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

apt-cache policy gnome-screensaver
gnome-screensaver:
  Installed: 3.6.0-0ubuntu2
  Candidate: 3.6.0-0ubuntu2
  Version table:
 *** 3.6.0-0ubuntu2 0
        500 http://pt.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ quantal-updates/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     3.6.0-0ubuntu1 0
        500 http://pt.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ quantal/main amd64 Packages

Any ideas?
