screensavers-molecule
4. change molecule to one of the working screensavers, such
Hi,
Thanks for the info you sent. But as it doesn't actually correct
whatever is wrong with the Molecule screensaver module, I
would not call it a fix, but only a workaround. My own fix
is to make darn sure I never select that module from the list.
Apparently the problem was not widespread, but
L confirm this freezing bug with another screensaver Lattice ; surprisingly
it shows-up after a long while either on KDE testing feature or with automatic
triggering ; no way no regain control of computer when this bug shows up.
Regards.

I am using 7.10 Gusty Gibbon on a Dell Dimension 4500 1gz, i had the
same problem happen to me. It really irritated me, after 15 minutes i
would have to unplug the computer and restart. I wasn't able to change
the screensaver from the screensaver preferences-- my system would hang.

I can confirm this. Device Manager calls it ATI Rage 128 Pro Ultra TF
with Bus Type: PCI (even though it's an AGP card?). Also, Desktop
effects cannot be enabled. Molecule screensaver causes total lockup.
I started digging into this problem when Gwyddion (image processing

Scanning the list of Gnome Screensaver bugs, I discovered that Bug #117482 is
apparently a duplicate of this bug.
The users commenting on it are reporting exactly the same symptoms as this bug
exhibits. They are also using
the ATI Rage 128 video card. So it's the same problem, with the same
Seeing this bug as well with the Molecule screensaver on my system with

I can confirm this one also. I'm running a Dell Dimension 4100 1Ghz,
with an ATI Rage 128 Pro video card, Feisty 7.04.
System completely locks up required hard boot. If I go back into
screensaver it locks up again because Molecule is selected.
I'll try another crash to see if I can get the

Without doing anything except letting my computer go go to the
Molecule screen saver and lockup, then hard restart, I was able to see
the Molecule screen saver and change it to something else.
If you are still having this problem maybe try this by letting the
machine activate the screen saver
Feisty!
I just spent 13 hours installing the upgrade to 7.04, hoping it would fix
the Gnome-screensaver bug (106060). It didn't. My PC still froze as soon
as I opened the Screensaver window, since Molecule was still selected.
Is there a way to edit or trash the Gnome-screensaver-preferences
you can use gconf-editor and go to /apps/gnome-screensaver to change the
hack used, could you attach the requested logs to the bug though?

Hello,
I don't know whether you have anything to do with maintaining
Ubuntu, but I got copied on your note, so I'm sending you information.
This bug (106060) showed up with the updates that were installed on
or about 4/13/07. At the same time, several of the other screensaver
modules stopped
Oops!
My G3 has three operating systems installed: OS 9, OS 10.2.8, and Ubuntu 6.10.
While it is CURRENTLY running OS X, it was obviously (I hope) running Ubuntu
at the time of the Screensaver tests I ran. Sorry if this caused any confusion.

I can definitely confirm this bug. It freezes two different PCs, both running
Ubuntu 6.10, i386 version.
It also stalls in the Macintosh version, but does not freeze the system. It
never produces a screensaver,
but was responsive to mouse clicks and keyboard selections. Both PCs had to be
hard
Could you attach your /var/log/messages, /var/log/syslog,
/var/log/Xorg.0.log after the crash?
