<pre>[15:31:02.854] leaving VT
[15:36:02.855] queueing pageflip failed: Permission denied
This is interesting, because the "Permission denied"-error happens exactly 5
minutes after leaving the VT. 5 minutes (300 seconds), is incidentally the
default value of --idle-time, which determines when the screensaver is
activated.
If I set this value to 10 (seconds) (--idle-time=10), leave the VT, then enter
it again after 20 seconds, I get a freeze. If I set the value to 60 (seconds),
leave the VT, and enter the VT after 20 seconds, I *don't* get a freeze.
So it definitely seems like it's when the screensaver (or whatever is triggered
after "idle_time" seconds) is activated while away from the VT, switching back
to the VT causes Weston to become unresponsive to keyboard input.
Staying on the VT while the screensaver is activated doesn't cause a freeze;
when I move the mouse the green unlock circle appears and I can proceed as
normal.</pre>
