Description Fabian Deutsch 2007-11-10 14:47:02 UTC 
Maybe more power can be saved if those values (especially the value for blanking the screen) can be set below 11 minutes. Maybe the sliders should allow values starting with 1 minute.

You can resolve this by lowering 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.
