Bug Description
When I play a movie fullscreen in totem(-xine), the monitor goes to standby in 20 minutes.
The screensaver does run, if I set the timeout to 1 minute it will run when not in fullscreen, and won't if it's fullscreen.
However, the monitor goes to standby, regardless of the timeout value entered in gnome-power-
If I set g-p-m timeout to 1 minute, nothing happens. If I set it to "never" the screen will still go to standby.
After consulting with mjg59, it seems that all g-p-m does is modify a gconf key, and gnome-screensaver is the only thing that actually tells X to send the monitor to standby.
So, this might be two bugs.
-> monitor goes to standby even when playing movie in fullscreen
-> the timeout value of g-p-m seems to have no effect.
Running dapper.
Please help me debug.
