Description Jim Cornette 2004-07-30 17:47:56 UTC

Description of problem:
Using the latest versions of software from rawhide (development as of
7/30/2004) I am having X crash when either StarWars or noof comes into
rotation using random screensavers.
I am running on a Dell Optiplex computer that uses the i810 driver.

I filed another bug report on X that I will reference after the bug
report is submitted. The symptoms of the crash are contained within
the X report.

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


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start X
2. Run random screensavers
3. Notice screen stays displaying the same information and does not
update.
4. try with one screensaver, no crash
5. cycle through screensavers, notice crash on 2 screensavers.  

Actual Results:  Screen would not update. I noticed that ctl-alt-Fx
did not change the screen. The first suspicion was a locked up computer.
Tried with circuits screensaver and noseguy overnight and neither
crashed the computer.
Cycled through screensavers and repeatable error with the two
particular screensavers.


Expected Results:  Displaying impressive screensavers and cycling
without crashing X

Additional info:

These will be included later. Bug report is not available right now. I
will add this info shortly.
