According to linker@nightshade.ml.org: > The screensaver just wont go away (how do you turn off the console screen > saver anyways? setterm -blank 0 doesn't seem to work..?)..
I had the same problem; I've backed down to 2.1.89 for now. 2.1.90-pre? (2?) also gave me full brain-dead lockups, adding to my reasons for backing down.
BTW, to recover from the screen saver freeze, just switch to another virtual terminal and kill your xlock process.
