Thanks Ronald, Tormod and others for your comments. Thought I'd provide
a brief update: I took a shortcut approach to fixing the Rage 128
problem...I swapped the card for another brand and I am able to get
Hi,
I, too, am disappointed that this bug has not been fixed in over 1.5 years.
I encountered it in mid-April of 2007, right after upgrading to Ubuntu 7.04.
I also have the offending Rage 128, as I'm sure many hundreds do. This
bug was not present prior to the 7.04 upgrade, so I would think it

Selecting the Molecule screensaver makes the PC
Hi,
Thanks for the info you sent. But as it doesn't actually correct
whatever is wrong with the Molecule screensaver module, I
would not call it a fix, but only a workaround. My own fix
is to make darn sure I never select that module from the list.
Apparently the problem was not widespread, but
dondad,
I don't mean to be argumentative, but the Molecule freeze appears to be
more thorough. The keyboard and mouse do not work. At all. The only
thing that works is a hard-reset with the power key, or unplugging the PC.
Molecule did not freeze up my Mac, but it took MANY minutes before a
Evidently this bug is a duplicate of Bug #106060, as all the symptoms are the
same, and the hardware software are the same.
Anyone looking for more information should be able to find it in that bug
report. It showed up in updates distributed 04-10-2007.
I don't know about everyone's workload,
Scanning the list of Gnome Screensaver bugs, I discovered that Bug #117482 is
apparently a duplicate of this bug.
The users commenting on it are reporting exactly the same symptoms as this bug
exhibits. They are also using
the ATI Rage 128 video card. So it's the same problem, with the same
Feisty!
I just spent 13 hours installing the upgrade to 7.04, hoping it would fix
the Gnome-screensaver bug (106060). It didn't. My PC still froze as soon
as I opened the Screensaver window, since Molecule was still selected.
Is there a way to edit or trash the Gnome-screensaver-preferences
Hello,
I don't know whether you have anything to do with maintaining
Ubuntu, but I got copied on your note, so I'm sending you information.
This bug (106060) showed up with the updates that were installed on
or about 4/13/07. At the same time, several of the other screensaver
modules stopped
Oops!
My G3 has three operating systems installed: OS 9, OS 10.2.8, and Ubuntu 6.10.
While it is CURRENTLY running OS X, it was obviously (I hope) running Ubuntu
at the time of the Screensaver tests I ran. Sorry if this caused any confusion.

I can definitely confirm this bug. It freezes two different PCs, both running
Ubuntu 6.10, i386 version.
It also stalls in the Macintosh version, but does not freeze the system. It
never produces a screensaver,
but was responsive to mouse clicks and keyboard selections. Both PCs had to be
