Screen saver time outs

If this was previously documented, I apologize for the duplication.

I just recently added on the BVU195 DisplayLink adaptor to my Macbook Pro 17-inch with the Intel i7 processor, I’m running Lion, 10.7.2 and the DisplayLink 1.7 b5.

My problems seem to all be centered on the screen saver function. When I log in, it requires the log in an extra time as the first log in take me directly to a screen saver screen which requires another log in. Additionally, every 15 minutes, the screen locks weather I’m typing, moving my mouse or doing nothing. I’ve been able to set a timer and it is exactly 15 minutes which is the time set in my screen saver pref. I changed the time to 30 minutes and the automatic screen changed. To prevent frustration, I moved it up to an hour. Are there any other reports of the screen saver activating even when in use? Could there be another preference or add in that could be causing a conflict?

What can I do to help evaluate this problem further?

Thank you,
