If you need a quick fix:
FC5 and newer use gnome-screensaver. In any case, a temporary fix is
to launch fl_teachertool (as root of course) then select all users and
click View. Now type gnome-screensaver into the input box and click
Select. Now click Kill. Do the same for xscreensaver if that process
exists. No more screensaving.
