You have been subscribed to a public bug: After upgrading to Ubuntu Gnome 16.04 LTS, the screen power saver started to malfunction. When the desktop is idle, it turn off the screen as usual, but a second later it turns the screen back on. This happens repeatedly. I have disconnected any input device as well.
I'm using Ubuntu gnome 16.04 with kernel version: 4.4.0-21-generic x86_64 This is the syslog entries from the moment the power-saver mode was started: Apr 27 16:09:31 Funaro-Home /usr/lib/gdm3/gdm-x-session[1152]: (II) intel(0): resizing framebuffer to 1680x1050 Apr 27 16:09:31 Funaro-Home /usr/lib/gdm3/gdm-x-session[1152]: (II) intel(0): switch to mode 1680x1050@60.0 on VGA1 using pipe 0, position (0, 0), rotation normal, reflection none Apr 27 16:09:31 Funaro-Home /usr/lib/gdm3/gdm-x-session[1152]: (II) intel(0): resizing framebuffer to 3600x1080 Apr 27 16:09:31 Funaro-Home /usr/lib/gdm3/gdm-x-session[1152]: (II) intel(0): switch to mode 1920x1080@60.0 on HDMI2 using pipe 0, position (0, 0), rotation normal, reflection none Apr 27 16:09:31 Funaro-Home /usr/lib/gdm3/gdm-x-session[1152]: (II) intel(0): switch to mode 1680x1050@60.0 on VGA1 using pipe 1, position (1920, 30), rotation normal, reflection none Apr 27 16:09:32 Funaro-Home gnome-session[1165]: (gnome-shell:1390): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: /build/glib2.0-t9oPgV/glib2.0-2.48.0/./gobject/gsignal.c:2635: instance '0x2e02040' has no handler with id '71399' Apr 27 16:09:32 Funaro-Home gnome-session[1165]: (gnome-shell:1390): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: /build/glib2.0-t9oPgV/glib2.0-2.48.0/./gobject/gsignal.c:2635: instance '0x2e02040' has no handler with id '71399' Apr 27 16:09:36 Funaro-Home gnome-session[1165]: Gjs-Message: JS LOG: Device -> Apr 27 16:09:36 Funaro-Home dbus[737]: [system] Activating via systemd: service name='org.freedesktop.hostname1' unit='dbus-org.freedesktop.hostname1.service' Apr 27 16:09:36 Funaro-Home systemd[1]: Starting Hostname Service...
