gnome-power-manager log

totem 2.29.2-0ubuntu1
while watching a movie totem should inhibit gnome-power-manager, but it does not.

I started totem --debug but it does not give any output.
I have instead collected gnome-power-manager --verbose output, and I found out that totem did not interact with it adding an inhibitor
Comment 1 Nicolò Chieffo 2009-12-16 14:38:56 UTC 
using gnome-power-manager 2.28.1-0ubuntu3
Comment 2 Bastien Nocera 2009-12-17 16:18:22 UTC 
And which version of gnome-screensaver?
Comment 3 Nicolò Chieffo 2009-12-17 18:41:36 UTC 
version 2.28.0-1ubuntu2
Comment 4 Nicolò Chieffo 2009-12-22 09:38:56 UTC 
I might have understood the problem: gnome-screensaver wasn't running.
does totem require it to inhibit gnome-power-manager?
Comment 5 Bastien Nocera 2009-12-22 11:00:13 UTC 
Yes. gnome-screensaver is required to be running. Totem only inhibits the screensaver. The screensaver then takes care of stopping gnome-power-manager if necessary.

This won't be the case once we switch to using gnome-session for inhibitions.
