Description of problem: This bug exist with MATE only, not when login as Gnome3 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Current, on Fedora 19 How reproducible: Solid Steps to Reproduce: Just watch a video, using VLC, the display dims after a few minutes (may ten) , the power management is properly set. 2. Updated 3. Actual results: Display dims after a few minutes. Unlike Gnome3 which works OK. Expected results: Display power management works exactly the same with MATE and Gnome3 Additional info: This bug was reported about two years ago, in Gnome 2, and then fixed. I suppose current MATE version uses an older Gnome 2 as base, so this bug is creeping up again.

In spite of the latest (Fedora 19 x86_64) updates, bug is still here, on July 28, 2013 A.G
I can confirm the issue in f19 and i have informed MATE upstream. https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-screensaver/issues/21
Since VLC uses xdg-utils (xdg-screensaver in particular) to inhibit the screensaver, the issue is xdg-utils lack of support for MATE desktop (ie component on this bug should be changed to xdg-utils). I have posted a patch to xdg-utils upstream [1] which is also available in my repo [2] to use for the time being. [1] http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xdg/2013-October/012890.html [2] https://github.com/oxplot/xdg-utils/commit/83358a12ccb60177b6698db33fb85176c5400fde
Oops, I didn't patch everything necessary to make it work. Here's the second (and hopefully final) part: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xdg/2013-October/012891.html https://github.com/oxplot/xdg-utils/commit/352efc1980859655c2b8644179ef3262a5b1cd9c
So, i need both patches to do a scratch build for testing? If it works i will re-assigned this report to xdg-screensaver. Than we should ask the maintainer to rebuild xdg-screensaver with the patch for fedora, so we don't have to wait for a new release. I think it's better in this case you put both in one patch ;) Also for your pull request.
(In reply to Wolfgang Ulbrich from comment #13) > So, i need both patches to do a scratch build for testing? Yes. There is a xdg-screensaver and xdg-screensaver.in file (hence the two patches) and apparently the former is not used when installing it but it might have some use that I don't know of-anyway both are fixed now. > If it works i will re-assigned this report to xdg-screensaver. > Than we should ask the maintainer to rebuild xdg-screensaver with the patch > for fedora, so we don't have to wait for a new release. > I think it's better in this case you put both in one patch ;) > Also for your pull request. So, I wait for you to test it and then post the single patch here?
Ahh, i didn't look into the patches. So, the second is patch 1 + extra? I will build it soon an post a link here
(In reply to Wolfgang Ulbrich from comment #15) > Ahh, i didn't look into the patches. > So, the second is patch 1 + extra? Oh no, you were right the first time. The patches are mutually exclusive. You need both.
scratch build for testing. http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=6027931 It works well, tested with mate-mplayer, vlc and smplayer. So i would suggest update your pull request with a 2 in 1 patch and and attach it here in the report. Than i will re-assigned the report and we should ask the maintainer for a official build.
Created attachment 808175 [details] fix for xdg-screensaver to support MATE desktop This patch is against the upstream commit c96d7b00aca3da1b608fde5827d7fea8785b3cd3.
Dear maintainer, It would be very helpful if you could test the patch and build a new xdg-utils release for rawhide/f20/f19/f18. Thank you
