Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-screensaver
On Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic with gnome-screensaver 2.28
No matter what screensaver is chosen, blank screen is displayed when screensaver turns on.
Have tried selecting and de-selecting activate screensaver and lock screen options, have changed screensavers (i normally use random) and still only a blank screen is displayed.
I've seen this reported before but they're pretty old, none have been reported past Hardy. Please let me know of any other information I can provide.

Thanks. Please post the output of "apt-cache policy libgnome-menu2". It's likely the bug you're experiencing is one that was already known and fixed recently, but you are running the out-of-date version still.
