i'm experiencing this issue in Ubuntu 11.04 (64bit). The freezes do not happen every time, it's random. I am not able to enter into a console when this happens either so I have to shutdown the system forcibly.
If I move my cursor around when it freezes, the cursor sometimes turns to a caret. I try to blindly enter my password but it doesn't work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/213099 Title: gnome-screensaver freezes and does not bring up the password prompt if mouse/keyboard activity -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
