lol... I think i spoke too soon! Oh.. the irony ;) Just while i was filing a bug for the gpm wrongly displaying a notification area icon , the screen blanked ;)
I lock the screen because gpm does not turn off the monitor > bugs 415589 For me , Locking the screen turns off the monitor after the set time. So now , the notification area icon appears if i unlock the screen after 10mins saying "Session... " But if i Unlock the screen before 10mins , it does not show the notificaication are icon. The last time i unlocked before 10mins , the screen blanked at around 10-12mins. I tried it again , to unlock before 10mins but it didt happen again... But the notification area icon is constantly displayed if screen is unlocked >10mins and not earlier. So this maybe a xorg problem and not a gpm problem since several are reporting it as fixed. -- Screen randomly goes off in karmic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/397839 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
