The same happened to me. I just locked the screen (Ctrl+Alt+L) and then I
wasn't able to enter my session. gnome-screensaver didn't show me the lock
screen whit password field.
When I click with the mouse, the screensaver disappears and the mouse appears
above the black screen for about one second and then the screensaver reappears.
I had to go to one console (Ctrl Alt F1) to kill gnome-screensaver and reenter
my session. Then I can launch gnome-screensaver again.
** Changed in: gnome-screensaver (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Confirmed
