Description

This is hrev46690.

Choosing the "Flurry" screensaver crashes screen_blanker. Sometimes right when selecting it, sometimes when you click "Test" or the screensaver kicks in. Maybe related to #6138?

On hrev47020 I'm having this too, and furthermore, now whenever I open the preflet, it crashes before I have a chance to even switch tabs to change it.

I've had a similar experience with the Flurry screensaver in rev47098 (GCC2) which just crashes on selection, and since I assume it's now the selected screensaver I can't access that preference panel any more. The screen blanker also crashes once it attempts to start up after a length of inactivity.

I'll attach a crash dump if that helps.

If you delete ~/config/settings/ScreenSaver_settings, the panel goes back to the defaults ("Blackness").

Still an issue here, hrev47221. Also, perhaps we should consider not creating a preview at first, to prevent future issues like these?
