The updated hamster-applet from comment #21 does not seem to fix
anything for me:
Still, the Screenblanker sometimes forgets to kick in. In these cases,
the moment I move the mouse again, the screen fades out as if the
Screenblanker is about to activate, but then switches back on (probably

Those are different issues. Could you please open two new bugs for them,

Marc - I had a look at the patch from upstream, and I still think it's
wrong. I was going to propose a different way to handle this upstream,
but haven't had a chance to look at it properly yet. hamster-applet
really shouldn't be intercepting and handling messages on the
org.gnome.ScreeSaver
I agree that hamster-applet shouldn't be doing that, and will be looking
forward to your better way of handling it.
Meanwhile, the ugly fix will help with screen-locking issues, and I'd
rather get something out that at least takes care of the issue sooner
rather than later.

Marc - Ok, I'm happy with going with the current solution in Karmic for
now then, as long as it solves the issue. It also has minimal regression
potential for hamster-applet.
I'll have a think about a longer term solution over the next few days
though, and propose that to upstream.
Thanks

Chris - if you are up to the task, I can well suggest looking in two places.
First the DBUS should be able to survive invalid listeners.
Second, it might be useful that screensaver / gnome session DBUS API
differentiate between a user-requested screen lock and idle timeout, because
that is what

Sorry, I didn't meant the fix was ugly, I just meant releasing an update

bad choice of words on my part.

Just checking the pulse here, from what I understand this has been fixed
upstream by hamster. Will the fix be backported to the karmic package?

After further testing, I was able to determine that this is not

The problem is that I have no
In the hope that it can help as per previous comment, here are some
steps for reproducing:
- in gnome-power-preferences, set the screen to blank after 1 minute of
inactivity

Yes, along with gnome-session and gnome-power-manager.
I did some further testing, and indeed, eog causes the same kinds of
problems as totem did: if you use fullscreen once, you won't have
working session idling (ie: eog doesn't uninhibit, it seems) until you
logout.

Upstream replied that they fixed the warnings in totem, and that they couldn't
reproduce the problem, but I can see how the original warning might happen.
Most likely, gnome-screensaver crashed, or was killed, and the gnome-session
inhibition didn't notice. gnome-screensaver is supposed to
