Re: Crashable screen saver

I have similar experience.
Well, the screensaver doesn't immediately crash my 8.10, but after running
overnight ( I fell asleep ), in the morning when I try to use my desktop
again, it prompts for passoword, entered, then nothing happens. The mouse
still runs, but no menu. Only wallpaper. And the keyboard gets locked, no
ALT+F1 access, etc. I have to poweroff.

Anyone as similar error? Got a workaround?
Thank you.
