I have the same problem, with gnome-screen saver crashing (gnome-screensaver-2.28.0-6.fc12.x86_64) all the time. I think this is caused by NX sessions, but I have no local access to servers so I can not check if it crashes too on local gnome-session. I.e. every time I start NX Session I am greeted with a new crash report. I simple cure is a some simple way to "blacklist" screen saver on NX Session startup. The only real problem of crashes is that constant crashes are filling disk space (abrtd) from maybe more intresting crashes. If needed I can provide coredump from abrtd.
Just to confirm ari.till's comments.. I am also using NX sessions exclusively to access my Linux box. Although I have the screensaver configured it doesn't actually work via NX. Will try disabling the screensaver and see if the issue goes away.
Well I decided to fix this with yum remove gnome-screensaver ;), since I won't access any servers locally. If somebody else uses only NX for access , I recommend the same fix.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 12 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 12. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '12'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 12's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 12 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 12 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2010-12-02. Fedora 12 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
