Hi - One of the screensaver options is exactly that - a blank screen. Are you sure that option is *not* set?

I have the same problem. I have the NVidia drivers installed for my 64MB GeForce4 video card and I know GL is supported. I have tried every screensaver on the list and I still have no Idea why it does this. I have tried a lot of things, but all have failed.

Likewise, I too get a blank screen when screensaver kicks in. I am using a 32MB NVIDIA GeForce 2 video card.
