I don't know if this is the same bug. For the first time today, i am experiencing the same problem - having the screen blank out during normal use and getting the icon with the "Session active, not inhibited, screen idle"
My graphics card is NVidia, however, and I am using the non-free driver, v. 185.18.36 (installed via ubuntu's Hardware Drivers applet). I am on Karmic x86_64 (kernel 2.6.31-14) (fresh install a few days ago, all updates applied). I have not changed my x configuration lately, so I don't know what it could be. (I have been typing with the icon showing and my display dimmed per my power settings for idle times, but just now, as I typed the line about the x configuration, the icon disappeared and my display undimmed, so apparently, something woke the power daemon up, but I have no idea what). dmesg doesn't look like it contains anything useful (and there was no change in it when the machine work up just now). I previously had jaunty on the same machine, and never had this problem. -- [i965gm] "Session active, not inhibited, screen idle" notification after screen blacks out during normal operation https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/451194 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
