Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-screensaver
When gnome-screensaver is set to the Pictures Folder theme (personal-
slideshow.desktop), the slideshow appears to freeze mid-fade on every
3rd or 4th transition, leaving a ghost of the previous image until the
next image is displayed. Otherwise, it's fully responsive. I'd be
happy if I could just disable the fade transitions so it does a straight
cut, but /usr/lib/gnome-screensaver/gnome-screensaver/slideshow doesnt
appear to provide said option.
I'm on hardy, kernel 2.6.24-12-386, with gnome-screensaver
2.21.6-0ubuntu3. It's a bog standard Dell Dimension 5100 except for a
GeForce 7300GS and Hauppauge TV card.
But the thing is this problem also existed on gutsy.
I do run mythbackend on this box, but it's rarely doing much. My
processor sits at around 11% utilisation normally, but these freezes
happen nearly all the time.
