Running Natty on Intel DH55TC. After enabling screensaver, screen freezes, and I have to power down to restart. Also system fans have started to run faster at the same time. Will disable screensaver and report back. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu

Similar issue where screensaver hangs machine when running for a while. 11.04 with INTEL GMA4500 chipset. Some screensavers also seem sluggish as mentioned by others. CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE to restart X solves the problem, but a bit drastic as a sustainable fix :-) -- You received this bug

It could be that I am hit by some other problem, but most of the symptoms seem to be the same. My experience is that Unity freezes even when Blank screen is selected as screensaver. Whenever the freeze hits I switch to a terminal with Ctrl-Alt-F1, log in and then issue the following commands:

This work around works for me when the bug hits: Use Ctrl-Alt-F1 to get a text login prompt and login as the same user that you were using with Unity/Gnome. Use top to find the process number of the screensaver process. It will likely be at the top of the list as it will be running 98-100% CPU

There were no freezes after I disabled the screensaver on the Vostro V13. Also, while the screensaver was enabled and X froze, after killing X through a virtual console and restarting it, it could be seen in the gnome system monitor that Hufo's Tunnel was using ~ 100% CPU; moreover, Helios was

I have a similar issue on my Dell Vostro V13; in fact, certain screensavers have been sluggish ever since the upgrade to natty, notably Helios - there was no such issue on Maverick. Also notable is the point that I have observed no such issue on my Sony Vaio VGNAR520E, which has also been upgraded
