Hi, i just installed ubuntu of my girlfriend's pc, because i try to convince her to use it (she has xp...). The problem is that pc go to sleep while she is watching fullscreen flash videos.
I remember that i had this problem a long time ago on ubuntu (on my pc) and i think this is more than a "low" issue. After a search on internet, i didn't found any other fix than running a command or clicking on an applet to inhibit the screensaver EACH TIME i want to see a fullscreen video. I don't want to be rude but ubuntu want to be a perfect linux desktop and this bug is really annoying for non-geek people. Ubuntu has to be capable on running fullscreen videos / flash videos without disturbing the user. I mean, it need to be automatic because the argument "On windows, i can watch my videos quietly" is stronger than anything else. BTW, her pc is running an up-to-date maverick. Do i need to report something ? -- screen turns off after 20 minutes even when playing in fullscreen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/97251 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
