screensaver program launcher

[johnlehardos]

Hello,

I'm looking for a way to launch a specific program when the screensaver of my kde4 switch into the running state.
On the other side, my program will stop running when the screensaver stops.

Any idea ?

I thought you could do this with xscreensaver and a bit of customization
(create a new "screensaver" placeholder, then define it to load your
application, set it to be used, done). but I cannot find that now on
Google. I know people who have done as much in the past. You may need to
replace your gnome-screensaver or kde-screensaver packages in order to do
this, but again this is all a bit fuzzy. If I come across a good tutorial
I'll post it here.

Good luck.
