u-s-c change available in silo 30 based on conversation with alf, see comment above, this bug won't be closed based on the u-s-c changes alone. We need components to employ this change in order to get the benefit
excerpt from alf mail What's missing -------------- * Other components that emit notifications and turn the screen on need to use reason 'notification' (integer value 4) to take advantage of the reduced timeout and proximity behavior. * Phone calls display an accept/reject prompt, but proximity is not enabled for this prompt, so one could inadvertently reply to a phone call (although it requires a slide gesture, which makes it more difficult). I have an MP https://code.launchpad.net/~afrantzis/powerd/phone-call-notification-enable-proximity that tries to improve this in powerd, but has a few drawbacks: - If the proximity sensor is covered when a phone call is received, the screen turns on momentarily before turning off again. - If the screen is already on, proximity is still enabled. For SMS messages we avoid these issues by handling everything inside USC. We could go the same way here by introducing a new reason 'call' for turning the screen on. I would recommend against this though, since we would be adding even more complexity and inelegance to a system that's already broken design-wise. ** Changed in: telepathy-ofono (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid => New ** Changed in: canonical-devices-system-image Status: Fix Committed => In Progress -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1291455 Title: [greeter] Screen and input should be disabled with proximity sensor when on greeter To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1291455/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
