I've just get the same X11 session freeze, but I've discovered that
the host is not in "freeze". I've connected from my laptop and just
killed the "screen saver" child process and this way I could re-login
and continue the current work.

I have the "Screensaver theme" set to "Random" so in this particular
case the blocking "saver" program is called "rubik":
  doru      6311  0.2  0.2  18300  5536 ?        Ss   16:21   0:36
gnome-screensaver
  doru     29077 65.3  0.2  24372  4736 ?        RN   19:42   4:38  \_
rubik -root

I think this bug report should be closed and/or reassigned to
'xscreensaver-gl-extra'. Shall I do that?

Thanks
