** Description changed: Binary package hint: xscreensaver This happens with all the computers that I have, both under Intrepid and under Jaunty. The symptom is that after the screensaver has been running for a short time (between 30 seconds and half an hour), the screen will go black and no longer run the screensaver. Unlocking the screen and re-locking the screen (to restart the screensaver) causes the screensaver to display normally for the same period of time, and then once again crash and go back to a black screen. - ProblemType: Crash - Architecture: i386 - CrashCounter: 1 - DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.04 - ExecutablePath: /usr/lib/xscreensaver/phosphor - NonfreeKernelModules: vmmon - Package: xscreensaver-data-extra 5.07-0ubuntu3 - ProcCmdline: phosphor -root -delay 0 -scale 2 -ticks 20 - ProcEnviron: - PATH=(custom, no user) - LANG=en_US.UTF-8 - SHELL=/bin/bash - Signal: 11 - SourcePackage: xscreensaver - Stacktrace: - #0 0xb7ca61d1 in fileno_unlocked () from /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6 - #1 0x0804a6a4 in ??
