Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: totem
Ubuntu 10.10 maverick
totem: Installed: 2.31.90-0ubuntu1
On a fully updated vanilla install of maverick (and a fresh user
account) the screensaver activates while playing a video with totem. I
tried VLC and it doesn't happen there, so I assume the bug is either
with totem or with gstreamer.
What happens: After the set activation time (for the screensaver) the
screen starts fading to black. When it is fully faded to black the
screensaver doesn't activate but you see the video again until the next
screensaver-activation-period.
I tried getting some info by running totem from a terminal with
"LANG=POSIX totem file.avi". I used LANG=POSIX to get english output to
post here. I didn't get any output on the terminal but something else
strange happended. The screensaver didn't activate. I ran totem again
without LANG=POSIX and surely the screensaver activated. Setting LANG to
en_US.utf8 also got the screensaver activated. Only POSIX prevents
activating the screensaver. I don't know what this information means,
but I thought it might help.
