I am encountering random blanking of my screens by XScreenSaver. It says the screen is locked, and to enter my password, but moving the mouse redraws whatever window is underneath it. No password is required. I can only re-draw the entire window by switching workspaces. If I drag a window around the screen, it will redraw whatever is underneath the window.
I have tried disabling the screen saver, and unchecking power management from the XScreenSaver dialog, but the phenomena persists. The blanking happens while I am actively working on the system, so it is not a normal time-out.
This can happen at seemingly random times. Once it starts the behavior accelerates to the point that the blanking happens after a few seconds and makes operation nearly impossible until I switch workspaces.
