My fix was to disable gnome screensaver and install xscreensaver.
Works fine on my machine (Core Duo E7400).

Looks like I may have filed a duplicate of this (
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-screensaver/+bug/474175
). However, it looks like all the discussion here focuses on vlc. The
same problem exists with totem--probably for the same reason. Sigh.

My 'workaround' at the moment is to do
gconftool-2 -s /apps/gnome-screensaver/idle_activation_enabled --type=bool false
before watching a movie and then doing
gconftool-2 -s /apps/gnome-screensaver/idle_activation_enabled --type=bool true
when I'm done.
Anyone has come with something better?
--
I'm doing same just i use gnome-screensaver-preferences and turn
idle_activation_enabled... And wollah... GUI :)
Unfortunately this is only temporary solution untill they fix gnome-
screensaver. But how comes in older version gnome-screensaver did work
properly?

Hi Matthias, which issue? The `gnome-screensaver-command --poke` fail
or the screensaver problem mentioned in the 2 posts previous?
Me TV calls `gnome-screensaver-command --poke` [0] so if it is broken
then Me TV will surely fail. Fortunately, the command is configurable
and stored in GConf at
Please don't use the org.gnome.ScreenSaver interface, as it has other
issues (such as leaking inhibitors if a process exits without removing
them). Use the org.gnome.SessionManager interface instead, and gnome-

gnome-screensaver --poke does use exactly this interface. The earlier

gnome-screensaver-command --poke uses the SimulateUserActivity()

Sorry for the ambiguity. I meant the issue that Me TV is interrupted
by the screensaver similar to the behaviour of vlc mentioned in the
Carlos, now that you say that, I realize mine has been the same way.
Did not think about it until now, but it is true.

While this is annoying, it it does not break karmic enough to be a

so moving milestone.

I have further studied the gnome-screensaver code, and have come to the
conclusion that the SimulateUserActivity functionality (this is what vlc
and 'gnome-screensaver-command --poke' actually call inside g-s-s) is
left simply broken.
As shown in comment #15, SimulateUserActivity asks the unlock
I repeated the test with the official packages from Ubuntu and, after a
reboot, it doesn't work anymore.
The only solution to the problem is the gnome-screensaver package from
the PPA.
