Bug Description

on jaunty a3 keyboard typing break is not cleared when suspending, so after a resume you have the remainder time left from before the suspend, or even when the break is in progress, after the resume it still is in progress, and you need to wait for the break to end.

This from Typing Monitor 2.25.3 (preferences - keyboard - typing break) on ubuntu9.04a3

Can someone forward it upstream? It really annoys to wake a laptop in the morning and get a typing break in 30 seconds.

Not only in Jaunty, it has been like that since I know it.

Alex: You can right-click on the notification icon, choose preferences and change the time interval to something else and back, and it will restart.

Attached is the patch I just uploaded there -- any chance we can get it into karmic? (I'd rather not wait another 6 months and all.) It applies and works for me against gnome-control-center 2.28.0-0ubuntu2.

A fix for this in Karmic would be awesome!

This change is already in Lucid. I think it's unlikely that the patch will make it in to Karmic - the patch looks non-trivial, and the bug doesn't really meet the criteria for fixing as a SRU anyway (please see the guidelines at wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates)
