gnome-shell uses idle monitor directly (as does unity-settings-daemon) if we revert the code in gnome-desktop we are going to have two independent idle monitors running, the one used via gnome-desktop plus the directly accessed one.
Alternatively if unity-settings-daemon exposes the d-bus interface then we only have one idle monitor that is accessed by everyone. This is more or less what I did previously in my displayconfig attempts, so I have copied the relevant bits (from mutter 3.10 with lots of renaming etc) and hooked it into u-s-d. test package is at ppa:darkxst/libusd its mostly working but maybe crashing occassionally, trying to catch it in gdb so I can investigate -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1377847 Title: unity screen saver no longer blanks nor locks automatically To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-desktop3/+bug/1377847/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
