XActivateScreenSaver() turns on the screen saver using the parameters set with XSetScreenSaver(). The screen saver blanks the screen or
makes random changes to the display in order to save the phosphors from burnout when the screen is left unattended for an extended period
of time. The interval that the server will wait before starting screen save activity can be set with XSetScreenSaver(). Exactly how the
screen saver works is server-dependent.
