Just a comment as to what I was doing above: the 100 papercuts project would like to keep track of their successes and fixes, and since this bug was rejected from their project we should keep it as invalid Once the fix is in Karmic, we can say it is fix released. If it is in an unreleased bzr branch or over on GNOME's git master, we use fix committed.

@Scott Howard: I understand the released/commited , But David Seigel wants the papercuts fixes to be marked as Fix Commited , for now. Also when i had marked this initial as confirmed , i felt it was a trivial fix, and David had overlooked this... hence i marked it fix commited. But discussed this with David and he feels we can leave it as invalid If you notice any other papercuts fixed , mark them as Fix Comitted only. -- display sleep time - why 11 minutes (gnome-power-preferences confusing to the users) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/59589 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

11 minutes is not a mistake, and is not a trivial change to make (involves interaction with session idle settings -- see comment). ** Changed in: hundredpapercuts Status: Confirmed = Invalid -- display sleep time - why 11 minutes (gnome-power-preferences confusing to the users) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/59589 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 59589] Re: display sleep time - why 11 minutes (gnome-power-preferences confusing to the users)
Umm! if you think about the average user, even a stmt such as As soon as computer is idle isn't quite intuitive. For ex: If I'm playing audio, but not touching keyboard/mouse, is that idle or not? A better option might be to give an absolute range starting from 1min, but warn the user, if duration is set to less than Screen Saver time. BTW, why's the max only 1 hour. On AC power, esp. with Desktops running on UPS, it's quite common to have sleep times around 4 hrs or so. I do this for my main desktop (running windows) as it's the file print server for the laptops in use at home. The display shuts off in 10 mins, but the machine goes to sleep after 4 hrs. -- display sleep time - why 11 minutes (gnome-power-preferences confusing to the users) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/59589 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 59589] Re: display sleep time - why 11 minutes (gnome-power-preferences confusing to the users)
KDE and Windows have at least two profiles. One for battery and one for ac. If I want to shutdown the display after one minute in Gnome it is not possible. If I set the screensaver to one minute shuting down the display is possible after two minutes but at the same time my screen gets locked after 1 minute of idle which is pretty annoying. The locking feature is important for a laptop so there is no workaround. The whole thing is just stupid and I can only think of one advantage. If I set the display to go to sleep after one minute of idle time it shortly powers down after locking the screen manually and not after e.g. five minutes. But the penalties are much more worse. -- display sleep time - why 11 minutes (gnome-power-preferences confusing to the users) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/59589 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 59589] Re: display sleep time - why 11 minutes (gnome-power-preferences confusing to the users)
Just put the screensaver consider idle setting at 1 minute, so then you can put the display sleep time to as low as 2 minutes. I don't know why anyone would want it lower than 2 minutes !!! -- display sleep time - why 11 minutes (gnome-power-preferences confusing to the users) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/59589 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

There is no obvious reason why it should not be possible to set it to As soon as computer is idle. It would be much more intuitive, that the left border of the slider is as soon as computer is idle instead of as soon as computer is idle + 1 minute. -- display sleep time - why 11 minutes (gnome-power-preferences confusing to the users) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/59589 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

Possible solutions that I propose: 1) Add a duplicate of screensaver-idle settings to gnome-power-preferences 2) Add some text explaining why the lowest value for putting display to sleep is X. ** Summary changed: - display sleep time - why 11 minutes + display sleep time - why 11 minutes (gnome-power-preferences confusing to the users) ** Also affects: hundredpapercuts Importance: Undecided Status: New -- display sleep time - why 11 minutes (gnome-power-preferences confusing to the users) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/59589 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
