Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xscreensaver-gl
Currently running 10.04 i386 RC (fresh install on same hardware), although the problem was also happening on 9.10 i386. Graphics card is ATI Radeon 4350. Graphics driver is ATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX. System is configured to lock when screensaver is active & require password to terminate. Screensaver is also set to activate after 5 minutes of inactivity. If any GL-based screensaver from xscreensaver-gl 5.10-3ubuntu-4 (such as GLBlur, GLCells, etc.) is selected & is active, when I move mouse/press any key to stop screen saver, I do not see the dialog where I can enter my password. However, if I type my password carefully, it will unlock & display the desktop. If I mis-type my password, it locks & requires either restarting X server and/or rebooting. With a non-GL screensaver (such as Cosmos), the screensaver clears & the enter password dialog is shown. Thank you for taking the time to look into this issue!
