Description Chris Ricker 2003-02-13 16:26:48 UTC
I'm running pre-beta5 (XFree86-4.2.99.4-20030129.5 ; xscreensaver-4.06-5) on a
system with a
GeForce2 MX video card

When I lock the screen with xscreensaver, the X server crashes after a
non-deterministic period of time

Nothing too interesting in ~/.xsession-errors:

<snip>
xscreensaver-command: activating and locking.

The application 'gnome-session' lost its connection to the display :0.0;
most likely the X server was shut down or you killed/destroyed
the application.
The application 'gnome-panel' lost its connection to the display :0.0;
<snip>

So it locks, then crashes, but no record why

Similarly, the log doesn't say anything. I'll attach that and the configu in a sec

see this with beta5 as well

the molecule3d screensaver seems particularly good at triggering it

We believe this issue to be resolved in our currently supported
OS releases.

Please upgrade to Fedora Core 2 or later, and if this issue turns
out to still be reproduceable, please file a bug report in the
X.Org bugzilla located at http://bugs.freedesktop.org in the
"xorg" component.

Once you've filed your bug report to X.Org, if you paste the new
bug URL here, Red Hat will continue to track the issue in the
centralized X.Org bug tracker, and will review any bug fixes
that become available for consideration in future updates.
