[Bug 397839] Re: Screen randomly goes off in karmic

 

Scott Howard , 
Since update gnome-power-manager (2.27.91-0ubuntu1) to 2.27.92-0ubuntu1
I havent seen the blanking *but* , i still [very often] get the notification area icon with a tooltip that says "Session active, not inhibited, screen idle.
If you can see this text, your display server is broken and you should notify you distributer.
Please see http://blogs.gnome.org/hughsie/2009/08/17/gnome-power-manager-and-blanking-removal-of-bodges/ for more information."

But i had blanking with *.91 so either the patch in *.91 didnt fix this
problem or it was fixed by these xorg updates[from xorg edgers ppa.] ,
which happened the same day as update *.92...

xserver-xorg-video-ati (1:6.12.99+git20090902.794ae743-0ubuntu0tormod) to 1:6.12.99+git20090908.fad9ee6c-0ubuntu0tormod
xserver-xorg-video-intel (2:2.8.1+git20090829.7c48c21b-0ubuntu0tormod) to 2:2.8.1+git20090907.94fc93d4-0ubuntu0tormod
xserver-xorg-video-radeon (1:6.12.99+git20090902.794ae743-0ubuntu0tormod) to 1:6.12.99+git20090908.fad9ee6c-0ubuntu0tormod


Regarding the icon..... notification area icon disappears in a few minutes after using the system
So , if this blanking issue is fixed  , why is gpm displaying the icon? is it still broken or ... ?
