Re: gnome-screensaver causes hard lockup when selecting "random"

This is happening to me immediately after I load the preferences panel.  I don't even get a chance to select a screensaver.

I was trying to go in and set it to "blank" but I can't even do that before the machine hangs.

The only way to recover is to do a hard reset of the machine.

Also, probably related is that if I just let the machine sit and allow the screensaver to activate, I'm still able to access the box and everything seems to work normally, except that my screen has turned very dark.  It's almost as if my desktop display preferences have changed.

But, if I view the screen remotely it looks fine and if I restart the machine it's fine until the screensaver activates.

Of course I can't get in to turn off the screensaver, because going into the preferences causes a lockup!!  :)

Fedora 11.90
Dell Inspiron 531S w/AMD Athlon Dual core 64-bit processor
2GB RAM
320 GB HD

Not sure about the video card.  Can't figure out how to query the system to see what driver is being used.
