Bug#538694: gnome-screensaver: still broken in unstable

[Mark Hedges]

Package: gnome-screensaver
Version: 2.28.0-1+b1
Severity: normal


I installed the version from unstable, and it actually worked for a minute,
I locked the screen with it set to 'random' and 'Dangerball' came up, then
I went to the bathroom, when I came back the screen was blank and now it
is always blank when I try.
