Description gonzo5680 2007-09-03 00:35:51 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
The sliders that allow you to set a certain time where the computer would be put to sleep are too high.  The lowest number I can set it at is 58 minutes and then it goes up 59m, 1h, and never.  This occurs on all the sliders for both AC and Battery power.

Steps to reproduce:
This occurred one day, I don't know what I did for this to happen.

Actual results:


Expected results:


Does this happen every time?

I imagine that this will be because you have increased the "time to make the computer idle" setting in Gnome-Screensaver-settings. You can only set the sliders in GPM to numbers bigger than the idle setting in GSS. I know it seems silly, but GPM only finds out that the system is "idle" once you exceed that time.
