is by closely studying your system's logs. Take a look at this:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingGNOMEPowerManager for tips about
logging power management events in Ubuntu. Also, check the SBS server
log to make sure that ReallyPreventStandby stops firing off the
once-per-minute gsession-inhibit instances when you expect it to.
Also, modify the inhibit checking script that I posted above so that it
logs the inhibit state & the date and time:
# sudo touch '/var/log/squeezeboxserver/inhibit-check.log'
# sudo chmod 777 '/var/log/squeezeboxserver/inhibit-check.log'
check-inhibit.sh:
Code:
--------------------
#!/bin/bash
LOGFILE='/var/log/squeezeboxserver/inhibit-check.log'
for i in {0..10000..1}
do
INHIBIT=`dbus-send --print-reply --dest=org.gnome.SessionManager
/org/gnome/SessionManager org.gnome.SessionManager.IsInhibited uint32:-1`
DATESTR=`date`
if [[ "$INHIBIT" =~ "true" ]]
then
echo "At $DATESTR: Inhibited.." >>$LOGFILE
else
echo "At $DATESTR: Not inhibited.." >>$LOGFILE
fi
sleep 1
done
sleep 30
--------------------
Finally, Google coughed up this tidbit, from
http://live.gnome.org/GnomePowerManager/FAQ:
