To add some more comments. Thinking about the 30 minute suspsend when idle more. Off the top of my head I can think of some use cases that can be impacted by this:
* A long download via firefox or chromium * watching a movie or listening to music Though a solution seems to this already exist. I know that totem has the ability to tell gnome-power-manager that the it is busy so don't do anything automatically. This would also be something that firefox or chromium could have as well when they are downloading content. I was also told that Transimmision Bittorrent Client has the same logic to prevent gnome-power-manager from automatically like suspend when it is running. Not sure if they are reporting the system not being idle or something else. But I believe it's all done over dbus. -- [Maverick] Have default settings be energy star 5.0 compliant https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/604635 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
