[Bug 421329] [NEW] cat on keyboard crashes screensaver

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

i have a macbook pro penryn running kubuntu 9.04.  i'm running kde4.3
from launchpad, so i'm not quite sure if this is the proper forum for
this bug, but here it is: if i am foolish enough to leave the laptop
open and logged in with the screen locked my roommate's cat will
invariably decide that the warm computer is a good place to sleep.
after she has fallen asleep on the keyboard the screensaver seems to
after a while stop accepting keyboard input so when I shoo her off I
can't log back in.  i'm not sure what component crashes or if it is
hardware specific but it is certainly repeatable.
