XScreenSaverSuspend comes from the X11 Screen Saver extension library, Package: libxss-dev.
This is naming confusion - XScreenSaverSuspend has nothing to do with xscreensaver. After speaking with the xscreensaver devs, libxss-dev package isn't used by the team. They recommend the use of the xscreensaver-command utility to achieve such functionality. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xscreensaver in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/718176 Title: Inhibition of xscreensaver with XScreenSaverSuspend fail Status in xscreensaver package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Binary package hint: xscreensaver I'm trying to stop xscreensaver using XScreenSaverSuspend, but it doesn't seems to work.
