Title:
  Windows shifted and non functional after monitor goes in standby

Status in “gnome-screensaver” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-screensaver

  This bug occurred in Lucid Lynx 10.04 LTS on an Acer 21" wide screen monitor. I have an ATI Radeon 200M chipset.
  I am not sure if this bug is related to my video chipset, power management settings, or something else.

  The screensaver preferences were set on the Helios screensaver and set
  to activate after 5 minutes of inactivity. Upon awakening the monitor
  by moving the mouse or touching the keyboard, any open windows would
  be shifted from their previous position. For example Firefox always
  shifts down, other windows shift in the northwest direction. The title
  bar, min/max & close buttons of each window disappears. The screen
  does not completely freeze but I am unable to click on the top of the
  window and move it to its correct location. I am able to activate the
  top File-Edit-View toolbar and close the windows but only on the
  window that is on top. I am unable to switch to an alternate window.
  If you would like me to test this further, please let me know. This
  bug did not exist with the Karmic release.

  Restarting the computer returns functionality. I have disabled both
  the screensaver and the power management settings and have not had any
  further problems.

  I expected the screen to be fully functional once it is awakened from
  standby.
