Package: gnome
Version: 1:43+1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

After upgrading from Debian 11 to Debian 12, my system freezes hard at
the moment GNOME blanks the screen (the second setting in power saving
options in GNOME settings). Sometimes, additionally, after 10-15 more
seconds - the system hard reboots. Otherwise, I need to powercycle
manually. Either way, there is no clean shutdown.

This happens on AC power, and I confirmed this is the screen blanking,
and NOT suspend that causes this.

I also confirmed that if I switch to a text VT and leave the system
idle, the freeze does not happen.

I tried running `journalctl --follow` through an SSH connection to this
machine, but nothing appears before the connection freezes.

The system information about the computer that suffers from this problem
is below. Another laptop that I have (different hardware) running the
same software, does not exhibit this issue.

I'd be happy to try and isolate/debug this issue further, but I don't
know where to start. Hints most welcome.

regards,
Marcin
