I still get this problem under fc3-test3. This happened to me today after only 1 hour without touching to the computer.
does this happen with the GL screensavers?
No, I haven't seen him bug any time with the GL screensavers. I also noticed that my this happen more often with the screensaver named "Polytopes" but this also happen with any screensaver.
Under fc2 have had this problem several times. Discovered from about 1hour after last use to much longer times. Can't find anything useful in the logfiles. System can only be unlocked by reboot.
I've understood what happened : my computer needed to be clean inside! It was so dirty that each time the cpu was working hard, the computer freezed. Sorry about the spam. Should now be closed as NOTABUG. And Albert, clean up your computer and check after. I'm pretty sure this won't happen again.
Fedora Core 3 is now maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for security updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please reopen and reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a security issue and hasn't been resolved in the current FC5 updates or in the FC6 test release, reopen and change the version to match. Thank you!
