Bug Description
On a newly installed Dapper Drake Flight 6 (i386, live cd + espresso) the gnome-screensaver causes a freeze. I can not change to a console with alt-ctrl-fx nor go back to a functioning system in any other way than a reboot. This was happening several times, I now switched off the screensaver.

I hope that by choosing the package gnome-screensaver I found the right one, if not, please bring this issue to the appropriate place :-)
Thank you,

This happens with me too, but it seems only with GL or 3d themes/hacks.
If I'm logged in with ssh, killing the process (gnome-screensaver and hack process) or restarting X makes no difference. Shutdown fails too.
No further ssh logins can be made.
Have done dist-upgrade.
