Details

Description:
After update to version 6 xscreensaver stopped working properly: now it doesn't obey the directive to stay disabled (mode: off). It keeps activating itself after the set timeout, but instead of starting screensaver or powering off the monitor it just blanks the screen.

Additional info:
* package version: xscreensaver 6.00-2
* config file: /home/zzz/.xscreensaver

Steps to reproduce:
First activate xscreensaver, set mode (randome, one, blank) and timeout. Then just disable it and see how it is self-activated after the timeout.
