I'm experiencing this on a Radeon 9200 and 9700 with 2.6.8-2ubuntu1. There is only a blank screen when electricsheep is run by gnome- screensaver regardless of whether the --root 1 or --mplayer 1 flags are included in the .desktop file. Electricsheep runs from a terminal if the --mplayer 1 flag is given or if mplayer is already running and electricsheep's mpeg2dec cannot use the xv port. In the second case it runs very slowly.
