I think there was a glibc update yesterday, and that's probably what
broke it. I've been using the same screensaver for weeks, and I have
made no other changes recently.
I have an NVidia 6600GT card, and I'm using a recent 3D driver from
NVidia. Ironically, I have to use this driver because the x.org driver
will not display at 1680x1050. That's the other issue I have had with
the FC6 upgrade. It seems to insist on displaying 1280x1024, even when
1680x1050 is the ONLY resolution in my config file.

Check the kernel log after a "log-out".
You should see X.org/nVidia driver crash message.
If I'm correct, I'd suggest you file a report in

What I ended up doing was changing my xorg.conf to use the xorg driver,
so I could get in and change the screensaver. Then I recompiled the
nvidia driver, since I noticed that one of my updates from 2 days ago
was an xorg server file. That fixed the problem.
What is happening is the Xorg update overwrites libglx.so . Easiest way
to fix is to recreate the link:
cd /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions
mv libglx.so libglx.so.xorg
ln -s libglx.so.1.0.9631 libglx.so
ls -l libglx.so*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 Jan 10 08:39 libglx.so -> libglx.so.1.0.9631
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 675436 Dec 6 09:54 libglx.so.1.0.9631
