[Bug 505789] Re: gnome-screensaver-command -p triggers keyboard event
This bug was fixed in the package gnome-screensaver - 2.28.0-1ubuntu5 --- gnome-screensaver (2.28.0-1ubuntu5) lucid; urgency=low [ Chris Coulson ] * debian/patches/10_legacy_scrsvr_inhibit.patch: - Re-write to not use XTest to simulate fake key-presses in order to reset the IDLETIME counter, as this appears to be problematic. Use XResetScreenSaver() to do this instead. Thanks to Reinhard Tartler for the hint (LP: #505789) * Drop debian/patches/90_autotools.patch - no longer needed * Dropped debian/patches/08_gs_dialog_request_to_exit.patch - this is fixed by this commit in gtk: 0748cf563d0d0d03001a62589f13be16a8ec06c1, so there is no need to carry this patch any more. * Drop debian/gconf-defaults: - Use upstream default for lock_enabled (locking on screensaver activation) - user_switch_enabled is already set to the upstream default [ Marc Deslauriers ] * Added apport hook: - debian/source_gnome-screensaver.py - debian/gnome-screensaver.install -- Chris Coulson chrisccoul...@ubuntu.com Tue, 19 Jan 2010 17:46:56 + ** Changed in: gnome-screensaver (Ubuntu) Status: In Progress = Fix Released -- gnome-screensaver-command -p triggers keyboard event https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/505789 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-screensaver in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 505789] Re: gnome-screensaver-command -p triggers keyboard event
I am able to reproduce this with Open Office Writer, Calc, and Impress (seems to trigger Alt-F), but tried with several other apps with triggers for Alt-F, such as a Firefox, Code::Blocks, gedit, ampng others, and I got nothing. It also seems that if it actually triggered the Alt-F event, it would open the File menu in the same terminal window it was run in. Seems to me to be an Open Office bug. Are there any other apps in which you're able to reproduce this? -- gnome-screensaver-command -p triggers keyboard event https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/505789 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-screensaver in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 505789] Re: gnome-screensaver-command -p triggers keyboard event
I can confirm this behavior with blueproximity, OO and gnome- screensaver. Running the following batch script in a terminal window, then giving focus to OO Writer clearly shows that the problem is gnome-screensaver- command, not blueproximity: #!/bin/bash for (( ; ; )) do gnome-screensaver-command -p sleep 5 done To me it looks like gnome-screensaver-command --poke just sends the Alt key on its own. In OO (as well as any Windows app) this opens the first menu item (or closes the menu if it happens to be open). This behavior is really annoying since it basically makes OO unuseable when running blueproximity.

As a workaround I use the following proximity command in blueproximity: xdotool key Scroll_Lock xdotool key Scroll_Lock.

[Bug 505789] Re: gnome-screensaver-command -p triggers keyboard event
This is caused by my recent change to fix bug 428884. I'm slightly bewildered why we haven't seen issues like this before, as the method I chose for inhibiting the screensaver is used elsewhere already (eg, Totem uses the same method when not running under GNOME, for example when it runs under XFCE).

[Bug 505789] Re: gnome-screensaver-command -p triggers keyboard event
I've pushed a change to bzr which fixes this issue. Unfortunately, it breaks screensaver inhibiting again and will reopen the original bug 428884 due to a xorg regression, so I've not uploaded it yet: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25855. Once that xorg bug is fixed, then screensaver inhibiting will work properly and this bug will be fixed. If we can't fix the xorg bug in karmic as a SRU, then the only realistic choice here is to back out the original patch and reopen bug 428884 for karmic. ** Bug watch added: freedesktop.org Bugzilla #25855 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25855 -- gnome-screensaver-command -p triggers keyboard event https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/505789 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-screensaver in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
