Description harry.heinisch 2002-01-24 20:42:42 UTC
Description of Problem: KDE screen saver swarm hangs system


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kde 2.20


How Reproducible: easily


Steps to Reproduce: 
1. Use KDE
2. choose swarm screen saver(or for random hangs choose random screen saver:-))
3. get lunch and return

Actual Results:

Typically system is hung solid - unable to use hung terminal or to reach it via
network login.  

We've seen this on ds10's, ds20e, and es40s. Video card in each case has been 
elsa gloria, otherwise configs differ greatly.


Expected Results: normal behavior


Additional Information: I have not tested other screen savers individually - 
but when set to random it only hangs on swarm

Seems fixed in XFree86-4.0.1-15.  It should work in final candidate.
