    Hurricane residue? (Sorry, noticed your location.)

    I dunno. I have some bizarre behavior with screen savers, too. I have it
    currently set to the photo saver but recently had the matrix one.

    I'm on a laptop with 9.3, and acpi is enabled, with power saving set. On
    some occasions the saver kicks in correctly after a few minutes. On others,
    the screen just goes blank. On still others, the screen stays on.

    When I hit ctrl+alt+L to lock the screen, the same effect occurs.

    Now, I don't often reboot the machine and have it both plugged in and on
    battery. I usually suspend it to disc between home, the car (I carpool) and
    work.
