Title:
  gdm froze when anything but Unity went to fullscreen (even
  screensaver)

Status in gdm package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gdm

  My system keeps freezing if I leave it alone for a long time, usually
  more than thirty minutes, enough for the screensaver to kick in, and
  many subsystems (desktopcouch-se, zeitgeist-datahub, ...) becomes
  zombie processes, rendering the box unusable... I have found out it is
  not a screensaver specific issue, since I can have anything in full
  screen (like a banshee session, playing some music, or gedit with a
  text) and force the screensaver to never load, that after a while
  (again, more than thirty minutes), the box will freeze.

  I cannot kill X with Ctrl+Alt+Bckspc (which I have set previously),
  but I can still get to a shell via Ctrl+Alt+F2, then I can get log
  files, kill gdm-binary, and startx (startx wont start Unity
  completely, complaining I dont have enough hardware to run it, and get
  me to a Ubuntu-Classic session)

  At least I have managed to post this bug with apport.

  This happens every single time I am AFK with anything but Unity
  fullscreen
