[Bug 792787] Re: i "lock screen" comeback later I don't get a login prompt, I can ctl-alt f6 and login so the system is still working I just can not get back in graphicly without a reboot

 

Follow-up:  If I set my screensaver to "fiberlamp" (a non-GL
screensaver) everything works as it should.  So this seems to imply that
this is a problem only with GL screensavers.  If there's any more info I
can offer to help nail this down, please let me know.

  this is random, I just upgraded last week from 10.04 to to 10.10 then right after that went to 11.04. I can use my system for
  hours, doing a screnn log or just locking because i walked away, I can login fine and then I will come back the the earth
