Fedora floating screensaver stutters

I have the same problem on one system but not on the other.
I don't know if it happens in the base or just with recent patches.
My laptop has a straight Fedora install with no external packages,
except Skype. It does not show the gnome-screensaver issue.
My desktop has several other packages on it, most notably:
* madwifi
* the nvidia kernel module, and GL libraries from the patched
nVidia proprietary drivers.
Even the "Blank Screen" screensaver pegs the CPU (so it may not be a GL
issue).
I can't even get the password prompt to come up.
To undo the screen saver I ctrl-alt-F1 and killall gnome-screensaver.
I plan on reloading this system over the weekend to see if I can
duplicate the problem on a clean build.
