[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1232454] Re: "Computer will suspend very soon because of inactivity." dialog when resuming from suspend
I'm happy to see that this bug has been more or less resolved in 14.04 by changing the dialog to a less intrusive notification. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1232454 Title: "Computer will suspend very soon because of inactivity." dialog when resuming from suspend Status in Gnome Settings Daemon: Unknown Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: After upgrading to 13.10 today, every time I unlock my computer after leaving it for a long time I get this prompt: -- Power Automatic suspend Computer will suspend very soon because of inactivity. -- However, the computer doesn't actually suspend.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1232454] Re: "Computer will suspend very soon because of inactivity." dialog when resuming from suspend
I second pdknsk's suggestion. There might be some rare situation in which a notification before going to sleep could be helpful, but in a typical scenario, being inactive implies that a user is not watching the screen anyway. On the other hand, I suppose that users that are silently reading on the screen would actually be pleased by a notification. Having them in mind, I would suggest to replace the notification window with an onscreen message through empathy. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1232454 Title: "Computer will suspend very soon because of inactivity." dialog when resuming from suspend Status in Gnome Settings Daemon: Unknown Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: After upgrading to 13.10 today, every time I unlock my computer after leaving it for a long time I get this prompt: -- Power Automatic suspend Computer will suspend very soon because of inactivity. -- However, the computer doesn't actually suspend.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1232454] Re: "Computer will suspend very soon because of inactivity." dialog when resuming from suspend
Thanks for the suggestions. I'd like to point out, however, that automatically killing the notification windows affects any notification, including ones that might indicate completely unrelated issues. I suppose this could result in quite annoying effects when potentially important messages are dismissed through this. Therefore I would not even consider this approach a workaround for the actual problem. There might be a way to kill specific notification windows only, but I don't think that this leads to a clean solution for the bug either. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1232454 Title: "Computer will suspend very soon because of inactivity." dialog when resuming from suspend Status in Gnome Settings Daemon: Unknown Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: After upgrading to 13.10 today, every time I unlock my computer after leaving it for a long time I get this prompt: -- Power Automatic suspend Computer will suspend very soon because of inactivity. -- However, the computer doesn't actually suspend.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1161599] Re: Backup to Ubuntu one failed, after 5 attempts status 400 bad request
Hi, I'm just wondering whether there is any progress on this issue. Unfortunately, this bug makes the Ubuntu backup system unusable for the affected users, leaving them without a backup of their data. So I believe this creates a certain level of pressure of eventually fixing this. Thanks! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to deja-dup in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1161599 Title: Backup to Ubuntu one failed, after 5 attempts status 400 bad request Status in Déjà Dup Backup Tool: New Status in Duplicity - Bandwidth Efficient Encrypted Backup: Fix Committed Status in “deja-dup” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “duplicity” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: On Raring using deja-dup to backup to Ubuntu one, when I add a particular git repository to the folders to backup and then start the backup, the process sits for some minutes at the start of the upload operation and then fails with a popup "Backup Failed. Giving up on request after 5 attempts last status 400 bad request". The progress bar does not get started as far as I can see. While it is saying that it is uploading I can see in System Monitor that data is being continuously sent, but after the failure there are no new files on U1. By a process of elimination I determined that it is the objects directory (which itself contains a large number of subdirectories each containing a number of small files) that is causing the problem. I attempted to determine whether it was a particular file or folder that was causing the problem but it seems not to be consistent. I thought that I had found a particular subfolder causing the problem, I cleared .cache/deja_dup, and then it accepted that folder. However when I then put back the rest of the subfolders it failed again. I copied the complete git repository to another machine (running up to date Ubuntu 12.04) and backing up from there (to a different U1 account) deja_dup has no problems. I also notice that on Raring it always takes a long time in the verification phase even when only a trivial change has been made. It is as if it is downloading the whole repository, but whether that is a related problem I do not know.
