GNOME screensaver's abnormal behaviour



Hi,

I have a random GNOME screensaver, a default one, on this computer
(debian Lenny w. kernel 2.6.26-2-686-bigmem).

It gets `paused' by pressing Esc, and is `de-paused' by pressing Esc
again. Left click does the same effect as pushing Esc, but right click
lets me get out of it. I am sometimes unable to get out of it, and I
need to restart the X-server, or go to another tty. I'm pretty sure that
this behaviour is not normal, and I would like to know what would cause
it, and if anybody has ever got the same problems. I looked at the
different logs, but found nothing interesting. Most of the time, simply
moving the mouse gets me out of the screensaver, but, in other cases,
moving the mouse gives nothing, and the situation is the one I describe
with Esc and right click.

Any ideas?

Thanks.
