Bug#552537: gnome-power-manager: g-p-m idle timer not based on gnome-screensaver settings

[Apelete Seketeli]

Package: gnome-power-manager
Version: 2.28.1-2
Severity: normal

Hi,

After running through blanking issues with g-p-m update to 2.28 I installed
xserver-common 1.7.0 that seems to solve them.
I however noticed that g-p-m does idle timer is not based on gnome-screensaver
settings anymore: I set screensaver idle time to 10mn, g-p-m to put the display
to sleep after 1mn and although it should shut the screen off accordingly after
11mn, that happens only after 2mn of idle time. g-p-m is putting the screen in
idle state after 1mn (diming the screen) and then putting it to sleep 1min
later.
Something seems to have been broken between g-p-m and screensaver lately, will
be glad to help find out.

Regards.
