Rather than doing a lipc command to stop the screensaver, I usually prevent all display overwrites by pausing the framework like this:
killall -stop Xorg cvm 2>/dev/null # pause framework
spoxbrane # draw stuff on framebuffer
killall -cont cvm Xorg 2>/dev/null # resume framework
Pausing and resuming the framework is almost instant, unlike a very slow "normal" framework stop and restart like the way other native apps (like Qt) do it. The downside of doing it my way is that the paused framework still consumes a lot of memory, while a full stop frees up all that memory. We do not need much memory, so I like just transparently and instantly pausing and resuming the framework as shown above.
On a K4 or earlier, you can remove "Xorg" from those "killall" commands.
