[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1292041] Re: Lockscreen doesn't turn off the screen

[Bob Wanamaker]

I'm running both Unity and Cinnamon in 14.04 with lightdm. That way 
unity-greeter takes over on logout from both.
To get display power off to work on my desktop I added (username) and root to 
lightwm in the /etc/group file.

lightdm:x:111:(username),root

Then I added the executable script /usr/bin/dpms-start :

#!/bin/sh
#
/usr/bin/xset +dpms
exit

In the /usr/share/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/ directory I added the
50-dpms.conf file :

[SeatDefaults]
display-setup-script=/usr/bin/dpms-start

A bash script may also work by changing the user to lightdm before
executing /usr/bin/dpms-start :

sudo xhost +SI:localuser:lightdm
sudo su lightdm -s /bin/bash HERE
/usr/bin/dpms-start
exit
HERE

You then don't have to modify the /etc/group file. Hope this works for
others still having trouble.

  The new Unity lock screen doesn't turn off the monitor screen.

  I can wait as long as 10 minutes after activating the lock screen and
  the monitor still doesn't trun off. Then when I unlock the screen and
  don't use mouse or keyboard monitor will turn off (it's about 5
  seconds after unlocking).

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 276272] Re: warning during installation: WARNING: Failed to parse default value

[Bob Wanamaker]

I was running into the same WARNING message and was able to eliminate it
by replacing two files in the directory /usr/share/gconf/schemas. The
files, control-center.schemas and gnome-control-center.schemas, were
moved to .orig files. The source of the replacement files was this URL:

http://search.4shared.com/q/1/control-center.schemas

After a re-install of update-manager, the WARNING was gone and
desktop.en_US.utf8.cache was rebuilt:

 Unpacking replacement update-manager ...
Processing triggers for hicolor-icon-theme ...
Processing triggers for gconf2 ...
Processing triggers for python-gmenu ...
Rebuilding /usr/share/applications/desktop.en_US.utf8.cache...
Processing triggers for desktop-file-utils ...
Processing triggers for man-db ...
Processing triggers for python-support ...
Setting up update-manager (1:0.134.11) ...

After a dpkg-reconfigure gconf2, there was no WARNING message.

It may have happened during an Ubuntu update when gnome-control-center
was also updated, since both the files were much larger and quite
different from the .orig files. I have compressed the new files and
attached them.

Ubuntu Lucid  10.04.3 LTS
