I tested tdepowersave before applying the patch. In tdepowersave I set the screensaver to 1 minute and autosuspend to 2 minutes. Without the patch the following happens: * After 1 minute the screensaver starts. * After 2 minutes the suspend-to-ram 30 second timeout dialog does not appear. * Thereafter the laptop never automatically goes into suspend-to- ram mode by itself. * Any user action interrupts the screensaver. * The laptop then goes into suspend-to-ram mode and the suspend-to- ram 30 second timeout dialog never appears. With the patch: * After 1 minute the screensaver starts. * After 2 minutes the suspend-to-ram 30 second timeout dialog appears. * After 30 seconds the laptop automatically goes into suspend-to- ram mode by itself. * Upon restoring from suspend-to-ram, the screensaver lock dialog appears. Well done! Darrell
