[Bug 428591] [NEW] locks up machine

[Roger E Critchlow Jr]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: flightgear

Using the current release of 9.10 and flightgear, this application locks
up my machine.  I click on the menu entry or run from a command line
shell, it opens a splash window, reports several stages of
initialization, starts an aircraft engine sound track, displays a menu
bar on the spash, and takes away the mouse cursor and all keyboard
response.  The sound track continues, the system load goes to maximum,
but I can't change virtual consoles or get any keyboard or ui
interaction to work at all.

I've tried this with both amd64 and i386 installs of Karmic Koala, same
result.

With quick fingers, one can open a flightgear menu before the machine
locks up with the menu displayed.
