Public bug reported: https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/37139
Affects: gnome-screensaver (Ubuntu) Severity: Normal Priority: (none set) Status: Unconfirmed Description: Minor mouse movement (tram passing by, walking around) stops xscreensaver. With an optical mouse on an uneven surface, it is sometimes difficult to click an icon to "xscreensaver-command -throttle" without immidiately stoping screensaver again. Disabling screensaver is very annoying if sleeping or doing non-computer work near a desktop computer. Suggestions: - Add option to ignore mouse movement events - Add a cli command to immidiatly go to the deepest DPMS sleep, only waking from keyboard input Tested on gnome-screensaver and Dapper Flight. Same problem with xscreensaver #34854. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
