  Hi,

  I'm experiencing this bug too, so I thought I'd come here and report
it. In my case however, the cause is quite obvious: my home directory
is on AFS, and the bug manifests when my AFS tickets have expired. I
would imagine that gnome-screensaver tries to access one or more files
inside my home directory before presenting the unlock dialog, and
fails.

  I'll report this directly upstream too.

Thanks,
Vasilis
