Thanks for your testing and finding this bug. I can confirm that this
bug exists in Karmic.
Steps to reproduce:
Karmic Live CD (Power Manager Inhibit Applet version 2.27.1)
Add Power Manager Inhibit Applet to the top panel
click on the icon
what happens:
nothing
what should happen:
the icon
I tried all of the above test:
1. gnome-power-manager --no-daemon --verbose does not produce any output. I
tried clicking the inhibit applet and changing panel brightness and there is no
output at all.
2. grepping /var/log/messages for gnome-power-manager produces no results. I
also tried
Thanks for looking into the upstream report. In order to debug further,
there are some additional information we can collect:
GNOME Power Manager Verbose Trace (This will turn on verbose debugging for
GNOME Power Manager.):
1) enter the following into the terminal:
killall gnome-power-manager
Attached.
The upstream bug mentioned is unrelated, as the behavior I'm seeing is
different - the applet does not seem to respond at all (I'm guessing it
tries to inhibit and detects that it failed).
