I recently witnessed this bug on Fedora 8, running compiz-fusion and an Nvidia
geforce LE 7300. So, its not just an ubuntu issue.

Subject: [Bug 101943] Re: braid screensaver crashes system with compiz
activated
** Description changed:
Selecting Braid screensaver when Desktop effects are activated runs my
system unusable. I'm running Fiesty on a dual core amd64, but i guess
these kind of details are now included automatically in the report,
right?
So what happens is that the screen freezes and i can only move the mouse
and hear gaim playing specific sounds. the keyboard is completely
unresponsive, not even the caps lock or num lock buttons don't work. I
can only press the reset button on my computer to get back. Obviously,
going back to screen saver preferences puts me in the same situation. i
must first deactivate desktop effects and only then change the
screensaver.
I also tried, after a crash, to let it launch by itself the selected screen
saver - Braid - but that too freezes the computer after it displays those
coloured circles on full screen.
This is the only screen saver with this problem. I checked all the others one
by one.
