I confirm this bug. This screensaver often freezes system. Compiz.real
process eats all cpu and X become unresponsive. This issue is pretty old
-- it was reproducible with old compiz or beryl.
System is not dead after hang: it can be recovered by logging in via ssh/telnet
and killing compiz.real process.
Rarely system can be recovered by switching to console (C-A-F1-6) -- you have
to wait few minutes for that.
Seen this bug in Ubuntu Dapper-Edgy-Feisty-Gutsy.
Xorg.0.log, dmesg, .xsession-errors never contain any information about hang.
** Changed in: gnome-screensaver (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Confirmed
