Created attachment 509807 [details] This image is my monitor's display after a crash. Description of problem: System crashes when attempting to exit xscreensaver. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 5.14-1.fc15 How reproducible: Allow xscreensaver to run, then bump mouse to exit to desktop Steps to Reproduce: 1. Allow xscreensaver to start (I used GLMatrix) 2. Most of the time xscreensaver exits to the desktop normally 3. At random intervals, the exit causes the O/S to crash to a black screen with a text dump. 4. The time between crashes shortened in the weeks after I installed Fedora 15. 5. The first crash happened a couple of weeks after Fedora 15 was installed. 6. By the time I disabled xscreensaver, a crash occurred daily. Actual results: Most of the time, a normal exit from the screensaver occurs. Expected results: A normal exit to the desktop initially, but the time between crashes decreasing from two or three a week to daily. Additional info: I still have xscreensaver installed, but have selected "Disable Screen Saver". No crashes have occurred in the week+ since the disabling. I'm using Xfce 4 as my desktop.
