and this is my .workrave directory . I find that the "state" file always like this ~/.workrave $ cat state WorkRaveState 3 1253584860 micro_pause 1253584860 0 0 0 0 0 0 -28800 rest_break 1253584860 0 0 0 0 0 0 -28800 daily_limit 1253584860 0 1253584699 0 0 0 0 -28800
+1 Only I use workrave under fvwm, and also I don't use 1.9.0 but 1.8.5 because version 1.9.0 triggers http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=253637 for me.
BTW, the timer does not work on my laptop either (workrave 1.9.0, under KDE 4.3.1)
Just a guess, but maybe it's related to this issue: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_name=4ABBBF52.9040500%40krandor.org

Created attachment 206391 [details, diff] Proposed ebuild patch
Please test the patches to confirm if it's related to xorg-server or gnome version. I have gnome-light-2.24.1 and xorg-server-1.6.3.901-r2 and that solve the problem for me.
With gnome 2.26.2 and xorg-server 1.5.0 I had no problems. After upgrading to xorg-server 1.6.3.901-r2 (not touching gnome) workrave stopped working as described. Applying the patch above fixed the problem. So I can confirm it's related to the xorg-server version.
(In reply to comment #9) > With gnome 2.26.2 and xorg-server 1.5.0 I had no problems. Sorry, just to be complete: the old version was not 1.5.0, but 1.5.3-r6.
@x11, could you comment on the need to upgrade some X related dependencies with this patch ? TIA.

After upgrading xorg-server to 1.6, my workrave also failed. I'm using fvwm, not gnome, although I have some gnome packages. I did not upgrade any gnome packages, so I the bug must be related to xorg. I do not have gnome-light installed. I was already using a patched version of workrave-1.9.0.ebuild, probably to get it working with fvwm. After applying workrave.patch to this already patched version of the workrave-1.9.0.ebuild, I got a compile error related to the python Cheetah package. After upgrading dev-python/cheetah from 2.0.1 to 2.2.2, workrave compiled again and the clock is ticking again. Thanks for the patch, I'm taking a rest break now :-) Please apply the patch ASAP!
Looks like Xinput 1 code to me. +#ifdef XI_DeviceMotionNotify and +#ifdef DeviceMotionNotify do look _very_ weird to me. I think workrave should use pkg-config to figure out what library version is installed instead of those hacks. Thanks
This issue seems to be fixed in 1.9.1. From http://sourceforge.net/projects/workrave/files/workrave/1.9.1/workrave-1.9.1.txt/download: *** User activity is now recognized on Xorg 1.6.0 I just copied workrave-1.9.0.ebuild to workrave-1.9.1.ebuild, removed the epatches since they didn't work anymore, emerged and now the timer is running again :)
bump is not straight forward, but I'm on it.
Now,Workrave works fine on xorg-server 1.7.3.902
Fine, but can we expect xorg-server 1.7.3.902 to be stabilized soon? If not, we still have the issue that the stable workrave doesn't work with the stable xorg on x86.
1.7 won't be stabilized for at least another month (probably even 2). Thanks
