2009-06-29 17:43:16 Timothy Pearson description Binary package hint: xscreensaver This happens with all the computers that I have, both under Intrepid and under Jaunty. The symptom is that after the screensaver has been running for a short time (between 30 seconds and half an hour), the screen will go black and no longer run the screensaver. Unlocking the screen and re-locking the screen (to restart the screensaver) causes the screensaver to display normally for the same period of time, and then once again crash and go back to a black screen. ProblemType: Crash Architecture: i386 CrashCounter: 1 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.04 ExecutablePath: /usr/lib/xscreensaver/phosphor NonfreeKernelModules: vmmon Package: xscreensaver-data-extra 5.07-0ubuntu3 ProcCmdline: phosphor -root -delay 0 -scale 2 -ticks 20 ProcEnviron: PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash Signal: 11 SourcePackage: xscreensaver Stacktrace: #0 0xb7ca61d1 in fileno_unlocked () from /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6 #1 0x0804a6a4 in ??

() Title: phosphor crashed with SIGSEGV in fileno_unlocked() Uname: Linux 2.6.28-11-generic i686 UserGroups: Binary package hint: xscreensaver This happens with all the computers that I have, both under Intrepid and under Jaunty. The symptom is that after the screensaver has been running for a short time (between 30 seconds and half an hour), the screen will go black and no longer run the screensaver. Unlocking the screen and re-locking the screen (to restart the screensaver) causes the screensaver to display normally for the same period of time, and then once again crash and go back to a black screen. A minimal patch has been created to fix the problem. Since this bug makes the Phosphor screensaver unusable as-is, and this is not a core component, I am requesting a stable version update for this package. The worst case scenario is that this patch causes a regression in Phosphor, which does not work as is, so the risk is minimal.
