Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager

I disabled the "Activate screensaver when computer is idle" check-box in
gnome-screensaver-preferences.

I expected gnome-power-manager to recalculate the sliders to start at 1
minute; or I expected gpm to continue using screensaver's "...idle
after" time as the base.

Neither happened.

screensaver's "...idle after" slider is set to 25 minutes.
gpm's "On AC Power" tab's Actions and Display sliders both start at 26 minutes.
gpm's "On AC Power" tab's Display slider is set to 30 minutes.

After 5 minutes my display goes to sleep. It is completely ignoring the
25 minute idle limit I set and is taking the 30 minutes and subtracting
the 25 minute idle time from it giving me 5 minutes before my display
turns off.

When can we get these two preferences on the same dialog box and
actually have them work!?
