Tested Aaron's patch with Jaunty and it appears to be working fine. I've repackaged the patch in a debdiff and am nominating for Jaunty. ** Attachment added: Watch all X screens for activity http://launchpadlibrarian.net/23174124/gnome-screensaver_2.24.0-0ubuntu5.debdiff -- Screensaver just detects idle time on one screen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/87317 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

I added the patch (took a while to figure out how). No problems, works as stated. No more locks when only using secondary monitor for a while. No crashes or anything weird.

Hi, I see that Aaron has posted a candidate patch. I'm not familiar with the bug cycle / code release process in the Ubuntu community. What does it take to get this patch pushed live? Is any user testing needed first? Count me among those looking forward to a release.

Reed, If you could test it, that would be awesome. Having positive feedback will help to move the bug's progress forward and get the fix committed somewhere. I am no longer able to test such things since I don't have a multi-headed display system anymore. :-/ -- Screensaver just detects idle time on one screen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/87317 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

I just noticed this problem and the fix seems pretty trivial, though I'm no GDK expert.

I can confirm this issue with ubuntu 8.10 (upgraded all the way from 7.04). -- Screensaver just detects idle time on one screen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/87317 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

Still an issue on a clean install of 8.10 There's quite a few issues with gnome-screensaver!

[Bug 87317] Re: Screensaver just detects idle time on one screen
I can confirm this bug on my fresh install of 8.04 (Hardy Heron) running dual monitors with NVIDIA driver. Using two seperate screens. After updating to Ubuntu 8.10 and creating a new xorg.conf , the problem persists. Gnome-screensaver seems to be causing more trouble, for example with focus on tsclient, but that is another story. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tsclient/+bug/48108 Thought I'd mention it, it might be related. My xorg.conf is attached, please pm if you need more info. For now, I just removed the gnome-screensaver package. NVidia driver version is 177.80. ** Attachment added: Xorg config file http://launchpadlibrarian.net/19590043/xorg.conf -- Screensaver just detects idle time on one screen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/87317 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 87317] Re: Screensaver just detects idle time on one screen
I have the same trouble (and it's getting rather irksome). I'm running a fully updated 'stock' Gutsy with a GeForce 6800 on NVidia drivers. My monitors are configured as separate X screens.

I am running Gutsy and have this same issue.

[Bug 87317] Re: Screensaver just detects idle time on one screen
I have just done a fresh install of Hardy and can confirm that the problem is exactly the same. One thing that might be important is that the monitors are configured as separate X screens rather than using Twinview. It might not make any difference, but I'm using the drivers directly from NVIDIA (version 169.12) because my GPU wasn't recognized by Hardy as being compatible. -- Screensaver just detects idle time on one screen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/87317 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 87317] Re: Screensaver just detects idle time on one screen
This issue sounds very similar to bug 91498 . Both are about gnome- screensaver not acting based on information for the second monitor with nVidia drivers.
