morning!

i've had another little screen/keyboard/mouse lock while running 
xscreensaver-4.0 with direct rendering enabled. i've encountered this 
kind of thing before, when the extrusion hack would break things. at 
least it was kind enough to leave its locked image on the screen, so 
i could readily disable it.

problem now is that the screen is blank when the thing dies (machine 
continues to operate perfectly well, and it does not seem to have 
anything to do with the daily crom run, as we had suspected, in that 
this time it happened several hours after the cron run), it leaves 
the screen blank.

so the next guess is that it's a particular module.

there are no errors in any logfiles i can find. so now i need to come 
up with a way to log the activity of xscreensaver itself, as it 
cycles through the modules. nothing i've tried works.

ideas?

i tried to email jamie directly about this, but the mail doesn't get 
accepted on the other end, probably because i'm doing the 
drippingwithirony smtp here, but incoming is hosted elsewhere.

There is sobbing of the strong,
And a pall upon the land;  
But the People in their weeping
Bare the iron hand;
Beware the  
People weeping
When they bare the iron hand.
