[Bug 851520] Re: Screensaver activates at the wrong times in Oneiric

 

The screensaver gets suspended while totem is playing a video. That is
by design.

The screen that blanks after 10 minutes is actually the power management
turning the screen off with DPMS, and has nothing to do with the
screensaver.

I'm not sure you actually have an issue here.

Title:
  Screensaver activates at the wrong times in Oneiric

Status in “gnome-screensaver” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  In my up-to-date oneiric, screensaver is acting errantly. I switched
  the setting to 1 minute. The screen began fading away at the proper
  time. I then ran a video in totem for a time and the screen cut off at
  ten minutes (with no fading). I then cut off the video and the screen
  faded (as it should) after a minute.

  I cannot reliably determine what it is that the issue is. I have asked
  someone to repro the issue and they didn't seem to be affected. I've
  deleted all my settings files and the issue persists.
