[Bug 573160] Re: Nautilus browser doesn't automatically refresh

I have Dropbox installed on 2 systems, one with 32-bit Ubuntu one with 64-bit Ubuntu. The 32-bit system does not suffer from this bug. The 64-bit system does. Don't know if 32 vs 64 has anything to do with it, but it seems Dropbox is a common thread. -- Nautilus browser doesn't automatically r

I confirm this bug in 10.04, and I had it in 9.10 also. It's extremely annoying. Actually I have 10.04 installed on 2 systems, one 64-bit that experiences this bug, the other 32-bit and does not have this bug. So maybe it's exclusive to 64-bit systems. Just a guess. -- Nautilus browser doesn'

Chris this is not a duplicate of #478308. The title of the current bug is very clear: "'dim display when idle' only dims but doesn't restore the previous value when not idle anymore." #478308 states "Dim when idle won't turn off". These are separate bugs. You and other users have posted descrip

I confirm this bug on an Eee PC 1005HA. The display dimming behavior on battery power seems unpredictable (sometimes it dims after a few seconds idle, sometimes much longer), and when the computer is active again (e.g. by touching the keyboard/trackpad) the display returns to its "default" brightn

Scott thanks for the info but I believe you have misidentified the problem. The bug I reported has nothing to do with G-P-M's ability to control hard drive power management, or lack thereof. The problem is that G-P-M is writing to the disk about once per minute, for the frivolous purpose of recor

Attached is a typical output of iotop, polling every 10 seconds, on battery power, showing that gnome-power-manager is writing to disk every minute or so. This is obviously detrimental to battery life and hard drive longevity, so gnome-power-manager should not behave in this way. ** Attachment ad

This bug exists in Jaunty. On battery power, gnome-power-manager writes to disk approx. every 90 seconds, causing my hard drive to never remain spun down. I will post additional info in the comments. ** Changed in: gnome-power-manager (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid => New -- g-p-m keeps disk

This problem is not limited to only "pictures". When I mount my internal NTFS drive, I get the pictures message as well as "The media contains software". Maybe because I have a folder called "applications". It's extremely annoying, with both lines taking up a lot of space in the view window. If
