Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
running 2.6.27 with latest intrepid.
I have gnome screensaver configured to use "blank screen" and to lock
the screen. When it activates and the screen fades out, X seems to lock
up. Keyboard input is ignored (including magic sysrq keys) and the only
option is to power off.
(Some suggestion has been made that the machine itself is still alive,
and that it's possible to ssh in).
As a test, I tried switching to a screensaver which does display
something (Flurry). When the screen faded out, X crashed and returned me
to a gdm prompt. The Xorg.0.log.old doesn't have any useful information
about the crash though, just some messages about AIGLX switching VT. I
have attached it anyway.
