** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu)
Status: Expired => New
** Summary changed:
- system freeze when executing script via custom launcher
+ system freeze when executing xset dpms force off
** Description changed:
Binary package hint: unity
+
+ Now in Oneiric the whole system freezes when just executing "xset dpms
+ force off", which is also a function in my script (see below).
+
Ubuntu 11.04 (64bit)
Unity package version: 3.8.10-0ubuntu2
I have a python script that turns off the screen (see attached file). I
created a launcher for it:
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Terminal=false
Exec=monitor_off
Name=Turn screen off
Comment=Turn screen off
Icon=xscreensaver
When launching it, the screen goes black, as expected, but after getting
the screen back (via mouse or keyboard), the system freezes. The only
thing I can do then is moving the mouse. The script works fine when
launched manually via terminal. It worked also perfectly in Ubuntu 10.10
and gnome-panel.
