@rrt, looking back at my last reply, I mistyped. What I meant to say is that I'm sure it would not work (xdg-screensaver being used to inhibit mate-screensaver because mate-screensaver does not support the xdg spec). This is a known issue going back to 2014. One could argue that the xdg team should accept it as a bug to support mate better or one could say that mate should accept it as a bug to support the xdg spec correctly. In either case, both teams seem happy with where they are at and neither seem willing to move forward on this.
And now that I have 2.8.3 with jorgicio's patch (which works exactly like you would expect under mate), I'm happy with what I have too. Someone else can fight the good fight on getting these two teams to figure out why it's not working. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1462186 Title: Add MATE support To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/caffeine/+bug/1462186/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
