@robert: can you run the procedure in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash and try to get a backtrace. Also, a copy of your .xsession-errors log should be attached to this bug report. That will greatly help in getting this fixed.
When it locks up, do you have to do a hard power off or does it become usable after a few minutes? Is this happening in a virtual machine or on a hardware computer system? Thanks for helping with this. I have not been able to duplicate this on my two computers. -- computer locks up when I select screen saver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/256785 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
