I'm currently running Ubuntu Jaunty (9.04) in a Sony Vaio VGN-SR350A and it
seems that the same problem is occurring again.
MatrixView screensaver starts and when you try to come back, the whole computer
freezes.
Is there any way to fix it?
What command outputs I can provide to help solving this

nearly two months later and testing ubuntu 8.10 RC this new version of
RSS-GLX 0.8.2 is still not showing up in the repos. The RC version of
RSS-GLX is 0.8.1-10ubuntu2. How much longer before this critical fix is
available ?

New upstream version 0.8.2 available.
Changelog for 0.8.2:
* Limit frame rate to vertical refresh by default if compiled with GLEW and
GLX_SGI_swap_control is available. Otherwise, maxfps set to 30.
* --nice eliminated and made default. nanosleep/usleep are much better
behaved these day

Gene: this "patch" thing means that it'll be fixed in Ubuntu, and generally
the fix, seeing as it's not that important, will be available in the next
version of Ubuntu (8.10). Or if you'd like it now, someone needs to either
make a .deb, or "backport" the fixed package from 8.10.
I'll let you know

Gene, patience :) It should go into Intrepid for testing first, and then
it can be backported to Hardy. This is the standard QA practice. And
since the developer resources are limited, it's more important to fix
problems in the next version than in the old, otherwise the releases
would become worse
i have nominated it for hardy, lest see what the release managers and QA
say
