Public bug reported:
On most current Ubuntu 7.10 beta.
Package: gnome-screensaver
Version: 2.20.0-0ubuntu4
Screensaver thinks that computer is idle when using only mouse.
When I go to
System > Preferences > Screensaver and set "regard the computer as idle after"
to 1 minute,
after a minute without keyboard strokes, but only mouse movements, screensaver
gets activated.
And what I just discovered while writing this:
when only typing (no mouse movements), after a minute screensaver starts to
active (dimming the screen). After a another keystroke it apparently resets its
idle timer.
So it seems that screensaver needs both mouse & keyboard activity?
