[Bug 546270] Re: Video crashes to black screen from gnome-screensaver-preferences

 

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
  
  Initially I was able to startup gnome-screensaver-preferences without
  issue but when I selected the Ant Spotlight for a screensaver and the
  ant in the preview almost made a full turn with its light facing you,
  the screen would go completely black and can't do anything but
  hardboot...well almost, after a crash I set the power button to switch
  off the system and sense then if I hit the power button just after it
  black screens the system shuts down as it is supposed to. But now if I
  load up the screen saver preferences the ant spotlight is select by
  default and as a result video crashes again a few seconds after
  screensaver preferences is loaded.
