Yup, sync_to_vblank seems to work for me, too!

[Bug 762918] Re: Natty Screensaver freezes system after some period of inactivity
Well, looks like the power manager tweak didn't eliminate it after all. However, I'm now starting to suspect full-screen video as a contributing factor, as my most recent freeze happened only after I watched a full- screen video for the first time since the power-manager tweak, and I had had inklings that full-screen video might be involved even before that tweak. I'll try to run some more tests over the next few days... BTW, I'm running on a Lenovo X201. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-screensaver in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/762918 Title: Natty Screensaver freezes system after some period of inactivity -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Yes, I'm pretty sure I was using Flash, but I haven't experienced any problems while watching videos, it's just that it seems like the hang only happens sometime after I had viewed a video in full-screen mode. FWIW, I'm running 2.6.38-8-generic-pae i386, though my processor is an i5 (and therefore 64-bit). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-screensaver in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/762918 Title: Natty Screensaver freezes system after some period of inactivity -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 762918] Re: Natty Screensaver freezes system after some period of inactivity
I was experiencing this problem (screen freezes except mouse pointer, but can still Ctrl-Alt-F1 to a terminal) regularly until a few days ago when I went into power manager and set Put display to sleep when inactive for: to Never (for both AC and battery). Since then, I have not had the problem at all, though of course my display also never goes to sleep. :-) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-screensaver in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/762918 Title: Natty Screensaver freezes system after some period of inactivity -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
