Not directly related to gnome-screensaver since I uninstalled it, and it
still crashed. Possibly related to the power management service, but not
sure.

Title:
  Complete system freeze some time after screensaver starts.

Status in Ubuntu GNOME:
  New
Status in gnome-screensaver package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Ever since updating to 15.10 my computer has been freezing every day.
  Usually this happens after I've left work, and since I leave my
  computer on, I manually start the screensaver (ctrl+alt+L), and when I
  come back the next morning, the computer is completely unresponsive,
  even to sysrq. Gnome screensaver itself doesn't appear to be the
  culprit since I can turn it on, then log back into my system any time
  within perhaps 5 minutes. Looking at my root journalctrl output,
  yesterday, it appears to have crashed 30 minutes after I logged out (I
  was zeroing a drive with dd, and was issuing a kill -USR1 to track the
  progress every 30 seconds).

  At first I thought it might be a botched upgrade from 15.04, so I
  tried a clean reinstall last week, but it still freezes. There is also
  nothing in the logs that would indicate an error/crash.

  The only potentially related piece of information is that I use gnome-
  shell, installed via ubuntu-gnome-desktop.

  I'm not sure what package to file this under since I don't know how to
  reproduce, or how to diagnose the issue. Any debugging advice will be
  appreciated since this issue is really starting to annoy me.
