I am removing myself from following this bug, as I am no longer using
the computer that I originally experienced it on, and have decided to
change distros on that machine's replacement.

Happened to me again, also; I had the lid closed on the laptop and Transmission
running full screen, and it was closed for perhaps
10-15 minutes. I was able to restart X with ctrl-alt-bkspace. This seems
consistant with comments up thread that disabling sync_to_vblank only minimizes
the occura
FWIW: Sean Fenton's advice about disabling sync_to_vblank in gconf-
editor seems to have done the trick: I just left my laptop on overnight
with Transmission running (which was a recipe to activate the bug) and
it came back no problem.
The key location is:
/apps/compiz-1/plugins/opengl/screen0/
Oh, and after all of my comments and troubleshooting, I never mentioned
specifically what version of Natty I was running!
32bit Natty Narwhal 11.04, fresh install from a burned ISO downloaded on
4/28/11 (IE, the actual release verison ,not an RC
or beta).

I think it may also have something to do with the screen locking: I had
my laptop sitting, screensaver disabled via the screen saver control
panel and in both the AC and battery profiles (the machine was running
on AC power at the time), and I was running the Transmission bittorrent
client. I ope
Peter: I never run on batteries and the AC power profile is also set to
'never' but I will try that nevertheless.

Title:

One other oddity: I just had my machine lock up despite having
deactivated the screensaver.
The lid on my laptop was closed for approx 2 hours, and I was running
the Transmission bittorrent client minimized. The power setting to
blank the screen may be to blame, since the gnome-screensaver proce
OK, it is locked up as before, and I see some relevant lines:

More info: after several tries, with only the Unity desktop running and
letting the machine sit for approx 20 minutes with the lid closed, the
screen kept flickering between the unlock screen and the blank desktop.
I ran a ps -eaf from a virtual termial and saw a line related to the

Additional note: Switching to the Blank screensaver did not make a
difference, though it seems to be correlated to having the lid of my
laptop closed for approx 20 minutes, and it is more noticable if I have
things running onscreen when it happens.

Put me on the list as well:
Running a Compaq Presariu CQ60 (I thinks its the 211DX but I don't have
it handy to verify):
2.16Ghz Intel Celeron 585
2gig RAM
Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 4500M
Running the fiberlight screensaver graphic.
I have it set to 'do nothing' if the lid is closed.

Upon re-reading it, I see I need to turn in my English degree ;-)
Since doing the distribution upgrade to 9.10, Fn+F6, Fn+F7 and Fn+F8 do not
work as th
FWIW: I have a Compaq Presariu CQ60-211DX, and I did the distribution
upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10, and I have the same issue. All the other Fn
key combos work properly, but Fn+F6 doesn't lock the screen as it
should.
If that helps.
