2014-07-16 11:41:31 Simon Steinbeiß description On XUbuntu, the new Light Locker puts the screen black when playing video as if there was no activity. That is supposed to happen when the user is away from keyboard but in the case of playing a video, no mouse or keyboard activity may be registered for two hours and still the screen must remain active. This didn't happen with the old screen saver. This applies to both and VLC and Parole. ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 Package: vlc 2.1.2-2build2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.13.0-20.42-generic 3.13.7 Uname: Linux 3.13.0-20-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: fglrx ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: XFCE Date: Fri Apr 18 15:41:48 2014 InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-03-31 (18 days ago) InstallationMedia: Xubuntu 14.04 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Beta amd64 (20140326) SourcePackage: vlc UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) Problem description --- Expected behaviour: When playing back videos in fullscreen mode in Xubuntu's, the X11 screensaver should be inhibited. (Xubuntu previously used XScreensaver.) Behaviour: The screensaver blanks the screen (after the timeout that the user defined in light-locker-settings, by default 10mins) despite the video playing in fullscreen. [Test Case] Play back a video file in Parole with screenblanking enabled (can be checked with "xset q | grep timeout"). [Regression potential] None apparent, tested in Trusty. [Other Info] A little background: this problem became apparent only in Trusty with the switch from XScreensaver to light-locker. As light-locker doesn't handle screenblanking itself but instead relies on X11's builtin screensaver (aka MIT screensaver extension), it needs xdg-utils/screensaver's support for inhibiting the blanking. For some reason, xdg-screensaver doesn't support controlling X11's screensaver extension in Xfce, probably for historical reasons (e.g. most distros with Xfce use XScreensaver).
