 Has anyone else seen this?

that's awesome!!  how to diagnose that
lets see first guess would be some sort of gdm/gtk/gnome theming which
could be related
per user? Like the gnome splash theme.. isnt that per user
configurable now.. and thus have some sort of systme default as well.

anything in /var/log/message that seems to be associated with
screensaver turning on or the lock dialog showing up?

 I have some inconsistencies across several machines with the artwork for

 have the themed fedora core 5 unlock window and on others I have a
 simple grey box. I can't really do a screen shot because the screen is
 locked. It doesn't appear to be user related because a new user on an
 affected system still has just the grey box unlock dialog.
The themed lock dialogs are per-screensaver.  Only one screensaver
currently provides a themed lock dialog.  It was probably a bad idea to
do it this way.  It causes a lot of confusion.

Thanks for the explanation. The Floating Fedora Bubbles is the one with
the themed unlock dialog. At least there's a logical explanation and no
gremlins!
