I'm starting to have serious screen burn-ins due to this! My laptop is ON most of the time and i didnt realize this was happening and now the LCD screen has burn-ins! I had problems with the screensaver not being activated and i was just closing the Lid , didnt realize the problem until my screen started having spots :( using gnome-power-manager 2.27.5-0ubuntu2 -- [karmic] display doesn't go to DPMS sleep https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/385633 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
[Bug 385633] Re: [karmic] display doesn't go to DPMS sleep
Closing the lid should (it does that in my current laptop and did that in my previous ones too) be disabling the backlight, so maybe the burn- ins where already there... From what I could find online, this problem with the screensaver should be due to the elimination process hal is suffering from and migration for udev/devicekit/whatever...

[Bug 385633] Re: [karmic] display doesn't go to DPMS sleep
@Luís Silva : Closing the lid should turn off the display completely. not just the backlight [at present it just turns off the backlight] ... To check if your laptop is actually turning off the display and not just the backlight : 1: Play a video , [easiest to identify if the LCD is off] 2: try to *gently* press the lid switch. [be gentle, if you press too hard the pin *will* break] now if the LCD turns off completely and you dont see any videos playing , your setup is working fine. if you have trouble differentiating use $ xset dpms force off you will notice that there is no vide playing when you run the above command. For me , i can see the videos playing when i use the lid switch. the lid switch only turns off the backlight. this was not how it was earlier. And the burn-ins werent there earlier , its only after i had left a recent video file on the desktop in karmic , the thumbnail image got stuck! similar happened to a window frame! the line of an open window got clearly marked!

Since this bug reappeared on my system, this may help; running gnome-power-manager --verbose shows this line during the initialization: TI:00:36:19 TH:0xd42df0 FI:gpm-brightness-xrandr.c FN:gpm_brightness_xrandr_setup_display,170 - No outputs have backlight property Maybe the g-p-m just doesn't detect that the screen is lcd with backlight, and because of that it doesn't turn the backlight off? Also I've noticed that after the initial display blanking by g-p-m, it will try to turn the monitor completely off every 10 minutes, which is the time out set in my g-p-m settings, and then after a split second the backlight turns on again. -- [karmic] display doesn't go to DPMS sleep https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/385633 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

Scott, this is clearly not an invalid bug, please *triple check* before you mark bugs invalid. It's in the link that you copied and pasted into this report. Anyway, this bug is NOT resolved for me (and I am the original reporter) -- I updated a few minutes ago, but am not using the .31 kernel because the nvidia kernel module does not load yet. I will be sure to update further on this issue once I am running the new kernel. ** Changed in: gnome-power-manager (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid = Confirmed -- [karmic] display doesn't go to DPMS sleep https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/385633 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

Sorry about that, thanks for reopening this bug and testing this in Karmic. You probably have already seen: http://projects.gnome.org/gnome-power-manager/bugs.html and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingGNOMEPowerManager Those links have some helpful tips for debugging GPM. In your case, specifically, the following command may be helpful: cat /var/log/message | grep gnome-power-manager (since verbose gnome-power-manager doesn't give an output). The complete path for gnome-power-bugreport is: /usr/share/gnome-power-manager/gnome-power-bugreport Which gives similar information as to the: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/27738076/DevkitPower.txt attachment Thanks for trying with the new kernel. If your Karmic distribution is from an upgrade, it might be worth using a liveCD (or follow the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingGNOMEPowerManager#Getting%20GConf%20values) to make sure there is no configuration errors. -- [karmic] display doesn't go to DPMS sleep https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/385633 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

Re: [Bug 385633] Re: [karmic] display doesn't go to DPMS sleep
some other bugs with similar symptoms: bug #231397 bug #193192 in addition to the reporter's comment about bug #203513 from bug #231397 (this may or may not help): Tony Houghton (h-realh: 0) wrote on 2008-10-14: (permalink) I've discovered that this behaviour is deliberate and gnome-power-manager (gpm) relies on gnome-screensaver (gss) to implement the blanking and DPMS instead of X. It behaves correctly when gnome-screensaver is running. It would have been nice to be able to use gpm without gss, because for most people there's no point in a screensaver that does anything except save power. However, gss does provide a way of suspending blanking for video players etc:- gnome-screensaver-command --poke - which is better than temporarily changing the X settings, so it's got its uses after all. Although I think it might be preferable for gpm to handle DPMS for gss instead of the other way round, I don't mind if this bug is closed without anything being changed. -- [karmic] display doesn't go to DPMS sleep https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/385633 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

me too :) using updated karmic development 64bit on MSI EX600 laptop with binary nvidia drivers. $xset dpms force off - works as intended, the Xorg log shows that the DPMS module was loaded succesfully. yet the screen never goes to sleep, only blank. And if the screensaver activated, then, after a set period of time the screen saver activated, after a few more minutes the screen goes blank (but not turns off), and after a few more minutes screen saver reappears and stays on. -- [karmic] display doesn't go to DPMS sleep https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/385633 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
