Hey,

when an application is preventing sleep using the inhibit dbus interface, xfpm correctly warns about this, but doesn't display the application name nor the reason, which makes harder for people to identify the relevant app.
Comment 1 Harald Judt 2014-11-19 21:15:32 CET
xfpm has changed. Please retry the latest version and reopen if the issue is still reproducible.
Comment 2 Yves-Alexis Perez editbugs 2014-11-20 13:31:04 CET
The issue is still present.

d-feet inhibit

This is a screenshot of d-feet inhibiting power management. That's where the inhibit items would show up as the patch currently stands.

Hi Eric,
I like this feature. Please make it available for all users, if possible not only for SteveOS.
