Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager
My laptop (a Dell Inspiron 6000) has multimedia buttons on the front that can be used when the lid is closed. My g-p-m settings are to blank the screen when the lid is closed. However, when I press the button (e.g. the volume) with the lid closed, I can see the screen turn back on inside the laptop. What's worse is that it never turns back off after that, even after the customary screensaver delay. Steps to reproduce: 1. Set g-p-m to blank the screen with the lid closed. 2. Close the lid. 3. Press a multimedia button. 4. Wait for the screensaver to turn on and/or the screen to turn off; no response. ** Affects: gnome-screensaver (Ubuntu) Severity: Normal Priority: (none set) Status: Unconfirmed -- Pressing multimedia buttons on laptop with lid closed should not turn on screen https://launchpad.net/bugs/44686 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
