--- Begin Message ---Subject: gnome-power-manager: "xset dpms force off" don't keep display off Package: gnome-power-manager Version: 2.28.1-2 Severity: normal Hi. After upgrade to 2.28.1-2 in SID, "xset dpms force off" shut down the display for few seconds then the display is resumed even if PC is idle. If i kill the "gnome-power-manager" process, I don't have problems and the display is off until a key press or move touchpad. If "gnome-power-manager" process is active, the display don't stay off. I kill gnome-power-manager first. Start 'gnome-power-manager --verbose', then 'xset dpms force off'. The output is in the attachment. Regards. Matteo Aquilano. -- Package-specific info: Distro version: squeeze/sid Kernel version: 2.6.31-1-amd64 g-p-m version: 2.28.1 HAL version: 0.5.13 System manufacturer: missing System version: missing System product: missing AC adapter present: yes Battery present: yes Laptop panel present: yes CPU scaling present: yes Battery Information: battery.charge_level.current = 71280 (0x11670) (int) battery.charge_level.design = 71280 (0x11670) (int) battery.charge_level.last_full = 71280 (0x11670) (int) battery.charge_level.percentage = 100 (0x64) (int) battery.charge_level.rate = 0 (0x0) (int) battery.is_rechargeable = true (bool) battery.model = 'Primary' (string) battery.present = true (bool) battery.rechargeable.is_charging = false (bool) battery.rechargeable.is_discharging = false (bool) battery.reporting.current = 6600 (0x19c8) (int) battery.reporting.design = 6600 (0x19c8) (int) battery.reporting.last_full = 6600 (0x19c8) (int) battery.reporting.rate = 0 (0x0) (int) battery.reporting.technology = 'Li-ion' (string) battery.reporting.unit = 'mAh' (string) battery.serial = '' (string) battery.technology = 'lithium-ion' (string) battery.type = 'primary' (string) battery.vendor = 'Hewlett-Packard' (string) battery.voltage.current = 10800 (0x2a30) (int) battery.voltage.design = 10800 (0x2a30) (int) battery.voltage.unit = 'mV' (string) DeviceKit data: Device: /org/freedesktop/DeviceKit/Power/devices/battery_BAT1 native-path: /sys/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/PNP0A03:00/device:0c/PNP0C0A:00/power_supply/BAT1 vendor: Hewlett-Packard model: Primary power supply: yes updated: Mon Oct 26 23:13:24 2009 (1066 seconds ago) has history: yes has statistics: yes battery present: yes rechargeable: yes state: fully-charged energy: 71.28 Wh energy-empty: 0 Wh energy-full: 71.28 Wh energy-full-design: 71.28 Wh energy-rate: 0 W voltage: 10.8 V percentage: 100% capacity: 100% technology: lithium-ion Device: /org/freedesktop/DeviceKit/Power/devices/line_power_ACAD native-path: /sys/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/PNP0A03:00/device:0c/ACPI0003:00/power_supply/ACAD power supply: yes updated: Mon Oct 26 23:13:19 2009 (1071 seconds ago) has history: no has statistics: no line-power online: yes Daemon: daemon-version: 012 can-suspend: yes can-hibernate yes on-battery: no on-low-battery: no lid-is-closed: no lid-is-present: yes GNOME Power Manager Process Information: matt 4557 0.0 0.3 153908 7812 pts/1 S 23:23 0:00 \_ gnome-power-manager matt 5000 0.0 0.0 3884 576 pts/0 R+ 23:31 0:00 \_ /bin/sh /usr/share/gnome-power-manager/gnome-power- HAL Process Information: 107 1356 0.0 0.2 38448 5044 ?
