Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-screensaver
When I go to the screensaver preferences, and select the "Vlechtwerk"
screensaver (couldn't find the English version of this Dutch word),
gnome-screensaver-preferences crashes with no special output. Capturing the
output, I only got:
** (gnome-screensaver-preferences:12193): DEBUG: Found best visual for GL: 0x21
which doesn't mean anything, because I also get this output when running other
screensavers.
However, only way to get out of the freeze, is hard-reset the system, or
keep CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE pressed (sometimes, X can still detect this one
and reboots itself).
The actual screensaver viewer (gnome-screensaver, which is activated on
timeout) is also affected.
No other screensavers show this behaviour.
I'm using gnome-screensaver 2.20.0-2ubuntu1, in combination with nvidia-glx-new
169.09+2.6.24.6-4.15 (I got this error after the recent nvidial-glx update, as
well as with the previous version)
