GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 580638
Screen goes on standby at random times
Last modified: 2009-05-14 09:55:19 UTC
With gnome-power-manager 2.26.1 sometimes while I'm using my machine, the monitor goes to standby only a few seconds after I stop moving my mouse. This in spite of the fact that I have set the standby time to 7 minutes. With 2.26.0, I think the monitor actually never did go to standby, even though I had configured it so in gnome-power-manager. System is Mandriva 2009.1 x86_64 with GNOME 2.26.1.
Created attachment 133521 [details] gnome-power-manager --verbose log gnome-power-manager --verbose log. The problem of the unwanted monitor standby happend around 21:37
I have the same problem. System is Mandriva 2009.1 x86_64 with GNOME 2.26.1 and it seems the gnome-power-manager ignores its settings. It goes to standy in random time in spite of that I set it to go never standby. When I unplugged power AC, nothing happens, nor the icon of power manager in task panel changes, nor the display dims as I set in preferences.
This looks like a dupe of bug 580570. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 580570 ***
