This does not belong to this list, but since I do not know where it should be
I will reply only to this list.
I have also had this problem and narrowed it down to the mode named "discrete"
I does not appear every time but is reprodusable.
I'm using the port xlockmore-4.11.
and this is the top my dmesg.boot

To solve my problem I only run xlock in mode blank.
