Regardless, it does happen and the only reliable workaround is to reboot my laptop. To reproduce this bug, I need to: -- run my lucid laptop with two screens, one on :0 and one on :1, that are different sizes, with the second screen connected via HDMI -- run virt-manager on the larger display (:1) and attempt to install Windows 7 in a 32-bit virtual machine; all interaction with the virtual machine must occur through the virt-manager GUI, not via VNC or other method. -- walk away from the laptop and display long enough for the screen saver to kick in (mine just blanks the screen), AND long enough for power savings mode to kick in -- when you attempt to get the machine's attention by wiggling the mouse or hitting shift on the keyboard, the only response is the cursor flashing in the lower left part of the :1 display -- no password screen, no actual control of the cursor (the mouse does not change the cursor location), At this point, the windowing system is completely unresponsive; logging in from another machine via ssh and restarting gdm can sometimes work (X does not always die), but more often than not it's necessary to reboot the system. If I run the same scenario but remove the second screen (i.e., do everything on the laptop :0 alone), the screen does not lock up. It's also not clear that virt-manager is a key part of the issue -- I can recreate it that way, but it has occurred under other circumstances where I do not recall if virt-manager had been running or not.
