Title:
  screens dims when idle and won't get bright again even if i move
  mouse, touchpad, key.

Status in “gnome-power-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  hi,
  why did my screen turned all black while reading internet news?
  when it turned black, i tried to move the touchpad and the it is normal again but 
  i noticed an additional icon on my upper panel.
  i moved the cursor/mouse over and it says 

  " Session active, not inhibited ,screen idle."
  If you can see this text, your display server is broken and you should notify your distributor.
  Please see http://blogs.gnome.org/hughsie/2009/08/17/gnome-power-manager-and-blanking-removal-of-bodges/

  what will i do ?
   the icon appeared is square with 4 red arrows on corners, similar to icon of "full screen view" of screensaver.
  can i just delete the icon and not worry about it?

  thanks ,
  Gary
