Public bug reported: I ran into a situation under Intrepid where gnome-screensaver would freeze on unlocking when running the flurry screen saver. I'm running current Intrepid. The system appeared to be locked up, but I was allowed to login. Upon running htop or top I discovered that the flurry process was consuming 100% of the system cpu. Once I saw the process taking up excessive cpu resources I issue a kill -1 5134. This effectively stopped the process. The results were the creation of a new flurry process which then became responsive. I was then able to log-in properly.
