Summary Screensavers lock up machine (screen goes blank, keyboard unresponsive, sound loops; sysrq/ssh possible)
Severity major

Product Mesa

For a while now, some screensavers sometimes lock up my machine. That means all
screens go blank, the keyboard is unresponsive (numpad-key doesn't toggle the
indicator led), the sound loops. But I still can use ssh from a remote machine
and the magic-sysrq-keys also work.

There is nothing to see in neither /var/log/messages (acquired via netconsole)
nor /var/log/Xorg.0.log.

I can trigger the bug (or regression, I think it used to work about 2 months
ago) reliably by using the Xfce4 screensaver settings application, which has a
preview of the screensaver selected. When switching between screensavers, the
lockup quickly occurs. A good candidate is the screensaver named "AntMaze", it
alsmost always locks up my machine (only worked once so far).
Other stuff works quite solid, Half-Life 2 worked multiple hours today.

Setting R600_HYPERZ=0 in /etc/environment didn't help. Also occurs on kernel
3.8.0-rc7.

I'm happy to provide more info if needed.
