Screensaver hangs in Jaunty

[Trond Thorbjørnsen]

When I write the passwd to unlock screen, the screensaver hangs on the screen. I am able to use the keyboard and mouse, the screensaver only fills the screen.

From syslog:
Mar 11 14:38:14 fanon gnome-session[3961]: WARNING: Detected that screensaver has left the bus

Thank you for reporting this problem, it helps make Ubuntu better. Please answer the following questions:

1. Is this problem reproducable?
2. What are the steps to reproduce the problem?
3. Are you using 32 or 64bit Ubuntu?

This will help.

It happens on every suspend.

This also happens on my machine without using suspend/resume.

This is also an issue on my Dell Inspiron 1525, running
2.6.32-25-generic #45-Ubuntu SMP Sat Oct 16 19:48:22 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux
Ubuntu 10.04 LTS - Lucid Lynx

After I type screensaver password the screensaver image still cover the screen. I can Alt-Tab and then see the desktop in the background and activate the different windows. By killing the screensaver I can fix the problem. This happens regularly, but not every time. Often enough to be annoying..
Happens most often after inactivity timer has activated the screensaver.
