For gnome-screensaver not coming up in xubuntu and mythbuntu, please

If you are still having problems with gnome-screensaver in a Gnome

2009-12-07 Thread Josef Wells
I cleaned out my users .gnome* .gconf* etc and my screensaver/power-
saving started working again, however, if I go to screensaver
preferences and make a change, it stops working until the next
logout/login.

I can not be sure that the fresh .gnome* .gconf* made a difference, or if that 
coincided with a change in the package.
I am also not 100% sure that mucking with the screensaver preferences breaks 
it, but others should give it a try.

Josef,

what desktop environment are you using? (Gnome, XFCE, etc.)
what change do you make in the preferences panel that makes it stop working?
When you say stop working, do you mean gnome-screensaver doesn't come up 
after the idle timeout, or does it not work at all?

Sorry for lack of detail..
Karmic w/ gnome and metacity.
(upgrade from Jaunty, upgrade from Intrepid Install)

When I say stop working I mean that screensaver and powersave modes
no longer engage after any idle timeout.

A new gnome-screensaver package was just published as a security update for 
karmic.
The update fixes a known issue that causes gnome-screensaver not to come up 
after the idle timeout expires.

Please install the update and reboot, and try gnome-screensaver again.

2009-11-30 Thread Forest
I'm having this problem as well.  Just to reiterate and clarify through
all the noise posts, the problem is that gnome-screensaver runs but does
not activate at the configured idle time on Xubuntu Karmic.  It worked
fine on Jaunty.

This bit in ~/.xsession-errors appears to be the smoking gun:

** (gnome-screensaver:1319): WARNING **: Failed to get session presence
proxy: Could not get owner of name 'org.gnome.SessionManager': no such
name

A few google searches reveal that gnome-screensaver changed the way it
detects idle time, now requiring gnome-session to do it.  That seems
short-sighted considering that gnome-screensaver is widely used by other
desktops, such as xfce, which don't use the gnome session manager.

These bugs are related:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=536381
http://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5927

The gnome-screensaver developers switched to gnome-session for idle time
queries, instead of sticking with the traditional method.  The xfce
developers (understandably) don't want to add gnome-specific interfaces
to their session manager to work around the breakage.

I'm hesitant to make one of the above bugs the official upstream bug,
lest finger pointing between upstream developers leave xfce users out in
the cold.  Perhaps the solution for xubuntu would be to use xscreensaver
instead of gnome-screensaver?

2009-11-19 Thread MaxFrames
I second that last comment: not being able to configure an automatic screen 
lock after a given time of inactivity is obviously a security issue at least in 
certain environments.
Personally I am getting this bug in Xubuntu 9.10, upgraded from 9.04. The 
screen saver can be started manually (either by command line or by the lock 
screen button/shutdown menu) but does not start automatically. On this 
particular computer, I originally installed 6.06 and upgraded to every new 
release; this is the first time I see this bug happening.

I agree with ThomasNovin and MaxFrames. This should be treated with more
urgency.

Not only is it a security threat, alleviated only by users taking action
that shoudl be automatic, it is also a green issue, in that it appears
that power management does not kick in either.

2009-11-15 Thread candelfleur
update my problems:
its ubuntu 32 bit, karmic koala fresh install.
updates where ok, but with new updates change of behaviour:
no occurrence of turn-on of screensaver while surfing anymore. 
problem that it doesnt turn on seems to be correlating with certain programms, 
maybe also when a programm window is open and active.
eg deluge.
when starting the screensaver per command gnome-screensaver-command -a it 
turns on with reduced graphical abilities.
after a minute electric sheep works like hoped.
next turn on of screensaver works automatically after the time period i 
adjusted.

This bug was originally and is still not working in Xubuntu Karmic. I
have changed the status to reflect triaged. Please do not change it to
fix released until it becomes fixed in Xubuntu. If you are running the
Gnome / Ubuntu desktop and the screensaver is working, great. Do NOT
mark this bug fixed. It is still not working for those of us using
Xubuntu. That is an issue, and a valid bug. It makes it very difficult
to get it fixed when you add a meme saying it works for you in Gnome.
Please stop adding to the bug now, unless it is to report a fix in

In addition to my Karmic x64 install, I noticed this is also broken on Debian 
Unstable i686 for me.  So maybe it is upstream?  Found this:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=538694

Odd that Debian unstable is on gnome 2.26 and Ubuntu 2.28.  My mind is
blown.

[Bug 397892] Re: Screensaver does not turn on [Ubuntu/Xubuntu Karmic]

2009-09-14 Thread danwood76
I am also having this issue, neither gnome-power-manager nor the 
gnome-screensaver will activate as X seems to not be idle.
I cant remember it not working until recently when I came home from work to see 
my PC awake and burning in my monitor.

The computer seems to try to sleep but gnome-power-manager reports X as
not idle and wakes the system back up.

Also activating the screensaver using the command posted above activates
the screensaver and manually putting the display into sleep by DPMS
works also.

I am reopening this bug on that basis.

Yes, I'm still seeing this, with a freshly-installed-from-alpha4
installation. I'm all up to date and so far the screensaver and display
sleep have both never activated on their own as if, as someone here
said, the system is never considered idle for some reason.

This is on an amd64 system with nvidia drivers 185.

gnome-screensaver-command -a works fine.

I updated to karmic 2 weeks ago.  At first the screensaver/power
management didn't work at all.  After the first week, screensaver
started working, but the power management (turning the monitor off)
never kicks in.

amd64 with nvidia 185 as well.

I am also seeing that the screensaver has started working again in Gnome
sessions, closing as Fix Released. Charlie or anyone else, please re-
open this bug if, after the recent gnome-power-manager updates, it's
still not fixed in Xubuntu. Thanks!

I'm seeing this on debian - let me know if I should handle this through
the debian folks, but it seems relevant here.  debian squeeze provided
gnome-screensaver-2.22.2 until recently, which worked.  There was an
update to gnome-screensaver-2.26.1, and it doesn't work there.  Nor 2.26
on gentoo.  Ah, and here's the ubuntu connection: it does seem to work
with 2.24 on ubuntu.

I can also confirm.  I have mine set to turn on screensaver after 5
minutes and turn off the monitor after 15 minutes.  Both were working
before upgrade, but neither work now.

2009-08-13 Thread Mike Butash
I can correlate similar behaviour after upgrading from ibex to jaunty to
karmic yesterday, screensaver will not initiate on it's own, but will
via  gnome-screensaver-command -a and other gnome applets to lock
screen.  My occurrence is slightly different that my system will never
even try to go into screen saver, rather its as though the system is
never seen as idle.  I also have a separate bug report for gnome-
power-manager as it exhibits the same problem of never dimming the
screen at a set time.  There is nothing relevant in xsession-errors,
messages, or anywhere I can find.
