Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-core

Ubuntu Karmic Alpha 5
xserver-xorg-core 1.6.3-1ubuntu6
Expected behavior: Backlight should turn off after the specified interval.
Current Behavior: Backlight goes off but immediately comes back on because of the event timer reset.  gnome-power-manager receives an reset event and is falsely led to believe that there is user activity.

Important since this drains laptop batteries at a faster rate.

This is probably fixed in commit
c1d901d723c3bee523736eacc15b44a7dff484fe, so I guess it needs to be
cherrypicked. I think it should have made it into xserver-xorg-
core-1.6.3-1ubuntu3 (with other related upstream cherrypicks), but was
missed.

** Affects: xorg-server (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
