Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-screensaver

If I go to another console from X (ctrl-alt-F2 for example) and work in there for a while (long enough for the screensaver in the X session to believe I am idle), the screensaver will hang when I switch back to X. What happens is that when I return to the X session, the screensaver starts immediately to fade to black regardless of when the screensaver actually was triggered in X. After fading to black, the screensaver no longer accepts input and must be killed along with the X session.

I am running Hardy Heron upgraded from Gutsy.
