[Bug 882893] Re: gnome-screensaver 3.2.0-0ubuntu1 failed to exit

 

This could be an issue with the Intel 82865G integrated graphics driver.

I have tried the older Intel 2.4 Driver.

RevertingIntelDriverTo2.4
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReinhardTartler/X/RevertingIntelDriverTo2.4

( Does NOT work, missing details and valid PPA sources .. )

Instead I used:

Downgraded versions of X.org drivers, libraries, etc. for Ubuntu.

Click on: 'View package details'

Click on: 'xserver-xorg-video-intel-2.4 - 2:2.4.1-1ubuntu11~ppa1'  (near
bottom)

Download:
https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/x-retro/+files/xserver-xorg-video-intel-2.4_2.4.1-1ubuntu11%7Eppa1_i386.deb

Then installed using:

   Ctrl-Alt-F1, for text login

  cd Downloads/  (location of .deb file)
 
  sudo dpkg -i xserver-xorg-video-intel-2.4_2.4.1-1ubuntu11~ppa1_i386.deb 
  (enter password)

  sudo apt-get -f install

(re-start PC)

THIS DID NOT APPEAR TO FIX PROBLEM.

Title:
  gnome-screensaver 3.2.0-0ubuntu1 failed to exit

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

Bug description:
  On older PC (Intel P4 2.8GHz, 1GB RAM), I am seeing this lockup with
  default settings.

  Ubuntu 11.10, Unity-2D, latest patch/updates loaded.

  Occurs when I wait for timeout, and screen blanks.   Does NOT occur
  when select screen-lock (from GUI, or keyboard)

  I have now two separate PCs, with identical results.

  
  Note: login screen (lightdm) is not susceptible to this issue.
