[Bug 427013] [NEW] Karmic xorg freezes when using glslideshow screensaver with an external monitor and a Toshiba laptop

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

I'm using Karmic with an external monitor connected to my laptop VGA
output. X freezes when the glslideshow screensaver runs. The freeze
happen after a couple of minutes. However I haven't noticed a freeze
when I'm using my laptop without an external screen attached.

When X freezes the keyboard is also frozen - only CTRL+ALT+Sys+{S,U,B}
works. Switching to a console doesn't work. The rest of the system works
correctly as I can ssh into the host and get on the network.

Killing glslideshow leaves it as a zombie of gnome-screensaver. Killing
gnome-screesaver leaves glslideshow as a zombie of init (1). Killing
Xorg works - a new loging screen appears.

I've attached a Batchbuffer Dump as my video card is an intel card.
