Yes got it to. 100% reproducible by just running /usr/lib/gnome-screensaver/gnome-screensaver-gl-helper from command-line. I'm currently on the failsafe xorg.conf, maybe that's why?

Me, too. 100% reproducible. Just running
/usr/lib/gnome-screensaver/gnome-screensaver-gl-helper
does it every time. And it happens to me every
time I leave the computer alone for ten minutes,
I think. This is a lenovo x60 running hardy beta.

I had this bug after upgrading my Hardy installation today. I ran "apt-get upgrade -y" as root and left my PC (I locked the screen). When I came back a message showed up that gnome-screensaver-gl-helper was crashed, and apport asked me to send a bug report.

I can' t reproduce this bug with running /usr/lib/gnome-screensaver/gnome-screensaver-gl-helper from command-line. I don't know what that program has to do, but when I run it I only get "0X21" on the standard output.

I can confirm: after upgrade to ubuntu 8.04 it crashes.
And I also have ATI drivers..
