Description Michael Gratton 2011-10-11 00:29:52 UTC
As far as I know, Empathy's auto-away status is supposed to work like this: when I leave my computer, GNOME detects the idle time of 10 minutes (or whatever), blanks the screen, and puts Empathy in "away" status. In previous versions, Empathy would come back to "available" status when I became active again. This does not happen anymore. Empathy goes "away" properly at idle time, but never goes back to "available" until I set the status manually.

This is up-to date Oneiric, running gnome-shell.
