I have Ubuntu 12.04

I have a 4 monitor system (the fourth monitor is an HDTV). I would like to have one screensaver for the first three and one for the fourth. So that for example If I watch a show on the 4th monitor the other three will have the screensaver going on and eventually will sleep.

One complicating factor is that I have xinerama mode (2 nvidia cards) which is limiting. In this mode xrandr cannot be used, thus cannot specify a monitor.
