Bug Description

Binary package hint: cmatrix

The Matrix View (package cmatrix) screensaver crashes the system when I press ESC button.

Steps to reproduce:
Lock computer with ALT+L,
and have configured that cmatrix is the system screensaver.
Press ESC one or two times.... reproduces every time.

---

I also have my PC set up, that it locks when inactive, I also noticed that
when I select RANDOM screensavers, the systemis frozen from time to time
when I come back and try to unlock.

No CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE or CTRL-ALT-F1 response...

But since it happens in random mode- I have not found out
which screensaver is responsable for this.

Workaround- use blank-screen as 'screensaver'.
