I added the XResetScreenSaver() to cvs
goto ogle.berlios.de to find the cvs repository
Another way to disable the screensaver without having to install a new version
of ogle, is to add 'xset s 0' in the ogle script 
before $DVDP_CTRL -u ... is called and 'xset s <time>' after, to reenable
it when ogle exits.


I looked a bit at the other outstanding bug reports

 ogle ignores rc files:
  Don't know what he expects to happen with the changes in the oglerc he made.
  Does debian install the oglerc at /etc/oglerc instead of /usr/share/ogle/oglerc ?
