Fixed by gnome-power-manager 2.22.1-1ubuntu4.1netbook2. My patch to fix the sliders when screensaver idle time is greater than an hour broke the display of 'Never' time. Whoops. :-/ Fixed by adjusting range of sliders before trying to set them.

Hello - I'm just checking in on this bug, has it been fixed in Karmic? Also, has upstream been made aware of this bug/fix?

I believe so, yes. History:
A) I applied a patch to fix an issue with screensaver idle time and power idle time interaction. I don't know Ubuntu bug off the top of my head, but it was upstream bug http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=529214
B) Upstream applied a slightly fixed version of my patch
C) This bug appeared, as a result of my patch not having the change that upstream made
D) I fixed this bug by making our patches more closely aligned.

So... yes. This is not present in Karmic, because it is upstream.
