This bug was fixed in the package fontconfig - 2.11.0-0ubuntu4 --- fontconfig (2.11.0-0ubuntu4) trusty; urgency=medium * debian/rules: - don't add /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts to the fonts path, that's a deprecated location and it leads to polling on the directory, which means wakeups and extra power usage (lp: #1266873) -- Sebastien Bacher seb...@ubuntu.com Thu, 16 Jan 2014 15:47:25 +0100 ** Changed in: fontconfig (Ubuntu) Status: New = Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1266873 Title: gnome-settings-daemon is polling for seemingly no good reason at all To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-power-consumption/+bug/1266873/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@Tim: I'm not sure I agree with that, while it's probably fine to drop that directory from fontconfig, we should probably not have g-s-d pooling endlessly on non existing directories anyway, the same issue might be happening with other ones depending of your configuration and what you have installed ** Changed in: fontconfig (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Low -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1266873 Title: gnome-settings-daemon is polling for seemingly no good reason at all To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-power-consumption/+bug/1266873/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1266873] Re: gnome-settings-daemon is polling for seemingly no good reason at all
There is probably a deeper issue here in that 'monitor_files' should only get called when the Fontconfig config changes (Based on the return value of 'FcConfigUptoDate'). That should not be happening every 4 seconds. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1266873 Title: gnome-settings-daemon is polling for seemingly no good reason at all To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-power-consumption/+bug/1266873/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1266873] Re: gnome-settings-daemon is polling for seemingly no good reason at all
The issue is coming from the xsettings code, it has a loop doing
while ((str = (const char *) FcStrListNext (list))) {
...
file = g_file_new_for_path (str);
monitor = g_file_monitor (file, G_FILE_MONITOR_NONE, NULL,
NULL);
That lists includes /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts, we should probably just
don't monitor non existing directories (that means that if they get
created the system is not going to pick them up, but that seems unlikely
to happen anyway, or not frequently enough that it would be an important
issue)

The list comes from fontconfig, we should probably just remove '/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts' from there. Its pretty unlikely that folder will ever exist these days. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1266873 Title: gnome-settings-daemon is polling for seemingly no good reason at all To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-power-consumption/+bug/1266873/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
