Computer fails to autosuspend

[Sal Mazzola]

Since 13.10 I was having a problem with autosuspend when using gnome-shell. The computer would have a notification on the screen saying the computer was about to suspend, but it would never suspend. After much searching, I found this bug on the gnome bug tracker (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=712706).

This patch https://bugzilla.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=271468 fixes the problem on gnome-shell 3.12, but it includes changes to C source code. I thrifted the patch to only fix the offending javascript code, and autosuspend is restored.

I think this bug is related to the same problem.
