Reassiging to self for requested information.

Comment 3 Ray Strode [halfline] 2004-11-10 22:01:45 UTC
Hi,

This bug is quite old now.  Given the lack of activity on this report and the
likelihood that this bug has already been fixed, I am going to close it.  If you
encounter the problem discussed in this report with Fedora Core 3 or a recent
version of X and xscreensaver, feel free to reopen.

Thanks

This bug appears almost every day on my x86_64 machine using
the fc4 distribution:

rd-bomb[2588]: segfault at 00002aaaaabf0000 rip 0000000000402fab rsp
00007fffffee5c20 error 6

Similar other message:

error 4
