I found the solution to the Molecule screensaver freeze problem! 1. go into the Terminal application (under Accessories) 2. enter: gedit .gconf/apps/gnome-screensaver/%gconf.xml 3. in the box that pops up you'll see: screensavers-molecule 4. change "molecule" to one of the working screensavers, such as: screensavers-sonar 5. restart The message from Xan 2007-12-03 up above suggests a way to remove molecule, but I haven't tried it. Good luck!
