I run no screensavers and I have the same problem. I have a graphics application that produces the same symptoms: desktop frozen, KB frozen, mouse moves but clicks to nothing. Ctrl-Alt-Backspace does nothing. PC must be rebooted to escape.
The graphics application runs normally with Visual Effects set to None. If Visual Effects are set to Normal, the lock-up happens within seconds. Suggestion: try running the problem screensavers with Visual Effects set to None. Does it now run OK? My graphics program has the following characteristics, which may be a clue to the underlying bug: hundreds of small screen updates per second (using gdk_draw_drawable()). This is also a typical screensaver characteristic. I can supply source and build script for the graphics program if wanted. -- [nvidia] braid screensaver crashes system with compiz activated https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/101943 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
