"Blank screen" screensaver, goes to white instead of black

[Randy Forston]

Guys,

In the last week or so, whenever I bring up the screensaver in Gnome, (I'm
referring to the "Blank screen" setting), instead of going to black, the
screen goes to bright white.

So far all I've found describing the screensaver are glade files that are
confusing .....

Does anyone have an idea how to fix this?


Background: 
I'm running 7.04, with Gnome, on an Intel 915 motherboard, using a ViewSonic
19" LCD monitor.

Thanks,
Randy
