Hi all,

I too have this exact same problem after waking from Screensaver on
11.04 (Natty) on an old Dell Optiplex GX620 (P4 HT).

Until this issue is resolved a quicker and easier way of restarting
X-Windows (rather than logging into the console) is to re-enable the old
CTRL-ALT-Backspace keyboard combination.  I discovered this by following
Kerry Kobashi's instructions here:

Unfortunately this will also log you off but it's better than pulling
the plug and doing a cold reboot. :-/

Best of luck people.
