[Bug 39908] power events not always respected

[Sami Haahtinen]

Public bug reported:

Affects: gnome-screensaver (upstream)
       Severity: Unknown
       Priority: Unknown
         Status: Unknown
Affects: gnome-screensaver (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed


Description:
I filed this upstream, but i'm filing it here too as it affects the
upcoming release:

Please describe the problem:
Power manager events are sometimes missed and hacks are run when a laptop is
running on battery power.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Allow screensaver to activate
2. Disconnect power
3. deactivate screensaver by moving the mouse or press a key
4. Allow screensaver to activate again.

Actual results:
When screensaver kicks in again, the hacks are being run, even though the
laptop
is still running on battery power

Expected results:
blank screen should be shown instead

Does this happen every time?
yes
