Sometimes after my eeepc is awakened, the password prompt is not displayed. i see a blank screen instead. I can see the mouse cursor moving. I can switch consoles (Ctrl+Alt+F1). I've noticed that gnome-screensaver eats 100% cpu when I'm waiting for the prompt. Afteer something like minute it comes back OK.
