Click on the applet. Result: Clicking on the applet icon produces no effect. The inhibit applet's icon and tooltip does not change, and gnome-power is not inhibited (the screen will still blank/suspend as per power profile). Expected result: clicking on the applet changes the tool tip and icon to display "automatic sleep disabled" (or something similar), and the applet should prevent the screen from blanking or suspending. + + + Also, from the terminal: + + ye...@yelo3-laptop:~/bin$ /usr/bin/gnome-power-manager-inhibit test + Traceback (most recent call last): + File "/usr/bin/gnome-power-manager-inhibit", line 34, in <module> + cookie = gpm.Inhibit("Command Line: " + sys.argv[1], "Long Execution") + File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/dbus/proxies.py", line 68, in __call__ + return self._proxy_method(*args, **keywords) + File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/dbus/proxies.py", line 140, in __call__ + **keywords) + File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/dbus/connection.py", line 620, in call_blocking + message, timeout) + dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownMethod: Method "Inhibit" with signature "ss" on interface "(null)" doesn't exist ** Changed in: gnome-power-manager (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Triaged -- [karmic] inhibit applet not working https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/389857 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
