[Bug 30969] Re: monitor goes to standby when playing a movie in totem fullscreen
Yes, this happens for me too (gutsy ubuntu and xubuntu). The xorg.conf changes didn't work as they were posted in this bug, though; I had to use Section ServerFlags Option BlankTime 0 Option StandbyTime 0 Option SuspendTime 0 Option OffTime 0 EndSection i.e. the same, but without spaces. Things that didn't work: Disabling DPMS in xorg.conf Removing g-s and/or g-p-m Replacing g-s with xscreensaver Seems to be an xorg bug, where for some reason it overrides all user settings. ** Summary changed: - monitor goes to standby when playing a movie in totem fullscreen + xorg suspends monitor regargless of gnome-power-manager timeouts ** Summary changed: - xorg suspends monitor regargless of gnome-power-manager timeouts + xorg suspends monitor regardless of gnome-power-manager timeouts -- xorg suspends monitor regardless of gnome-power-manager timeouts https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/30969 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for gnome-screensaver in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Same here too. I used Chris Balcums' fix so at least the monitor doesn't go into standby every 20 mins when watching a DVD (using VLC-I dont use Totem) but it would be better if the managedment settings actually worked.

Correct, DPMS is the cause of it.

[Bug 30969] Re: monitor goes to standby when playing a movie in totem fullscreen
I have a workaround for this, and have had one since Edgy. I thought I posted it here, but it doesn't look like I did, so: I commented out OptionDPMStrue in xorg.conf, and the problem has vanished, even when running gnome- screensaver and gnome-power-manager. I have no idea why this works; I saw the workaround in a Gentoo thread a while ago and applied it to all my personal computers.

[Bug 30969] Re: monitor goes to standby when playing a movie in totem fullscreen
it does happen to me. it is so annoying when i play movie with Totem Movie Player, but every 20 minutes i must move my mouse. if i not do that, the screen will sleep. (ps:i set 20 minutes to sleep the display) what must i do then? is it working to everyone by installing xscreensaver? -- monitor goes to standby when playing a movie in totem fullscreen https://launchpad.net/bugs/30969 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 30969] Re: monitor goes to standby when playing a movie in totem fullscreen
when i deinstall gnome-screensaver and replace it by xscreensaver, there is no problem. So i think it must be something with gnome-screensaver. When killing it, it also stops falling to standby.

[Bug 30969] Re: monitor goes to standby when playing a movie in totem fullscreen
I'm still experiencing the same bug in edgy. The screen goes blank after 20 minutes while watching a fullscreen movie in totem-xine. In gnome-power-manager, everything is set to Never and in gnome- screen-saver, Activate screensaver when computer is idle is unticked (and additionally the slider is set to 120 minutes). In my xorg.conf I only have a Option DPMS line, and every power- management related is turned off in the BIOS setup. -- monitor goes to standby when playing a movie in totem fullscreen https://launchpad.net/bugs/30969 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 30969] Re: monitor goes to standby when playing a movie in totem fullscreen
I have gnome-power-management to set the screen idle never and it still goes off after 20 minutes. My fix was to go into xorg.conf and just comment out the DPMS line for the monitor. So at least, there's a workaround. Probably not acceptable for laptops though. -- monitor goes to standby when playing a movie in totem fullscreen https://launchpad.net/bugs/30969 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 30969] Re: monitor goes to standby when playing a movie in totem fullscreen
Why do you have DPMS stuff in xorg.conf? g-p-m doesn't touch xorg.conf so that's perhaps over-writing the policy value. -- monitor goes to standby when playing a movie in totem fullscreen https://launchpad.net/bugs/30969 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

No, it sure isn't. In fact, it doesn't look like any work has gone into fixing it at all - behavior is identical to the way it was before (totem-xine).

This is happening for me not just when playing video, but if I just leave my laptop.
