i launched xscreensaver today, which i haven't done for awhile. within
a half hour, the display locked up. likely it's the same bug. and
likely that this bug has been around for many releases. back in natty i
used to run xscreensaver more often, and used to see this bug alot.
today i'm running saucy, as i do most of the time these days, trusty is
just a tad too bleeding edge for daily work for me. but so anyway,
today, the screen is still showing the antinspect screensaver, but the
xscreensaver process is gone. completely. crashed apparently, along
with several other X processes i had running.
the misbehaviour of the screen at this time is interesting. when i
press ctl-alt-F7, i see the crashed antinspect xscreensaver. when i
press ctl-alt-Fn, where n is {[12345689],10,11,12}, i see what i guess
to be leftover from boot messages, perhaps what i should see (only!) on
ctl-alt-F1. also seeing it in place of all the other VTs is bizarre.
at the same time that xscreensaver crashed, mplayer stopped playing
(kfai) for about a minute, then resumed.
i can login via ssh and generate a process list, which does not contain
xscreensaver nor the other X processes that crashed. attached. also i
just happen to have had output redirected for most of those X apps.
those outputs are also attached.
and here is a section from the "screen" session where i had launched
various X apps which also died along with xscreensaver. (jackd didn't
die, tho it did generate some complaints.) [1] was blueman-manager, [2]
was linphone, [3] was pavucontrol, [4] was vncviewer, [5] was oclock,
[7] was xscreensaver, [8] was firefox:

Title:
lightdm not visible upon reboot
Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
lightdm did not appear to come up upon reboot, tho these processes
exist:
*j101 root 1600 -1 1600 1 1600 11:56:00 0 poll_s Ssl
lightdm
*j102 root 1665 1665 1665 1600 1665 11:56:03 0 poll_s Ss+

lightdm --session-child 16 19
*j104 lightdm 1791 -1 1791 1767 1791 11:56:15 0 sigsus Ss
/bin/sh /usr/lib/lightdm/lightdm-greeter-session /usr/sbin/lightdm-gtk-greeter
*j105 lightdm 1791 -1 1791 1791 1797 11:56:18 0 poll_s Sl
/usr/sbin/lightdm-gtk-greeter
*j106 root 1600 -1 1600 1600 1900 11:56:31 0 pipe_w S
lightdm --session-child 12 19
instead i see messages as per a usual (noplymouth) reboot before
lightdm awakens. i tried chvt (via ssh), seems strangely unable to do
anything.
but i came back a couple hours later and the chvt *had* happened. so
i tried again to "chvt 7". again the display immediately went into
suspend mode. hitting keys doesn't reawaken it. "chvt 2" or other
VTs followed by tapping keys also no effect (at least not within 10 or
so minutes).
this has not happened before since installing trusty, so i'd guess
it's not predictably repeatable.
my offhand guess fwiw is a latent bug in some display related driver.
even back in natty i remember occasionally somehow falling into a
situation where even chvt couldn't unfreeze the display.
