Thank you for helping with making Ubuntu better by reporting this bug. The reason this bug didn't get a lot of attention is probably because it was reported without a package. It is most likely an issue in GNOME Screensaver, so I'm assigning it to that package to make sure the right people can find the bug.

I can't confirm this myself, my graphics card is an nVidia as well.
Is there anything specific to your installation that could cause this? I would also like to know if you could provide any other information regarding the cause of the bug and the method for reproducing this bug on other systems.

It doesn't seem likely to me, but could it in any way be related to the following bug reported against GNOME: <https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=593616>?

I'm unassigning you because it has been more than a month since you've assigned yourself to this bug. Please don't let this prevent you from contributing solutions.
