Public bug reported:

Odd things happening with gnome-screensaver on Jaunty Alpha 3
If it helps, compiz is disabled at the moment.

Gnome screensaver kicks in (tried this on blank screen and random) one 
processor core hits 100% and stays there. The screensaver works fine the first 
time, but moving the mouse or pressing a key on the keyboard doesn't dismiss 
the screensaver, it keeps right on going.
Clicking a mouse button causes a cursor to appear, and it seems to be working 
on the desktop but the screensaver is still displaying over the top of 
everything
(I know the mouse seems to work despite the screensaver being in the way 
because when I finally get back to the desktop there will be an empty folder or 
two and random other things depending on what I've blindly clicked on.) 
CTRL+ALT+F1 doesn't take me to a console, but it does clear the screensaver and 
take me back to a corrupted desktop. 
CTLR+ALT+F7 seems to sort things out but a quick htop confirms that 
gnome-screensaver is still running.

Please let me know of any files I can put up to help.

Cheers
