Bug Description

Binary package hint: totem

While on battery power, my laptop (Acer AS 1810T) is set to dim the screen when idle for 10 minutes. During play of a movie in fullscreen, the system (11.04) dims the display as it should, but the second time it dims, the screen freezes. tty1-6 are still accessible. Killing totem from the console at tty1 does not work. Restarting the X-server (ctrl-alt delete) fixes this.
totem version 2.32.0-0ubuntu10

Thanks for the reply, however I no longer own this laptop. Someone decided
it would serve him or her better than me without consulting me so I can no
longer try and replicate the bug.
