Description Muntean Alex 2004-09-12 00:48:09 UTC

the emerge of xorg-x11-6.8.0 went smoothly. 
after let's say 5-10 minutes of being in screensaver-mode, the screen locks, the image gets distorted [this occurs when i move the mouse/press a key, right when the password prompt should appear]
also, xorg-x11-6.8.0 seems to crash out of nothing in particular [same lock, same distortion], no notable cpu/memory activity.
tried to run both fluxbox & xfce4 on it, same crashes.

Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
1. xlockmode / x screensaver for about 5-10 minutes seems to have done the trick here.
Actual Results:  
screen lock / image distortion / total system crash [no response to keyboard/
mouse]

Does not sound like a xscreensaver issue if you are having random crashes within xorg-x11 as well.

Comment 2 Adam Jackson 2005-01-16 14:25:59 UTC

can't reproduce this.  could you attach your xorg.conf please?

does the new version of xlockmore (5.17) by chance fix this problem?

Closing this until Muntean responds with the required information.
