Totem mozilla plugin doesn't lock screen saver

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Please answer these questions:

 * Is this reproducible?
 * If so, what specific steps should we take to recreate this bug?
 * What ubuntu version do you use?
 This will help us to find and resolve the problem.

This is reproducible on all my systems.

Bug can be reproduced by going to any site with live stream, watching it till screen saver kicks in

and I use ubuntu 8.10

the title states that it doesn't "lock screen saver", what do you call lock there? what do you do and what error do you get?

Sorry for not clear explanation

I mean it doesn't prevent screen saver from running.

I used dbus-monitor to confirm futher that it doesn't use Inhibit call to gnome screen saver.
On the other hand when I use totem Inhibit is called.

maxim@maxim-laptop:~$ dbus-monitor | grep Inhibit
method call sender=:1.151 -> dest=:1.17 path=/org/gnome/ScreenSaver; interface=org.gnome.ScreenSaver; member=Inhibit
method call sender=:1.151 -> dest=:1.17 path=/org/gnome/ScreenSaver; interface=org.gnome.ScreenSaver; member=UnInhibit

This with totem, and nothing otherwise

There is a similar bug on http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=554750, could you get a log as requested there?

No problem

When I use totem, I see:

dbus-monitor | grep Inhibit

method call sender=:1.185 -> dest=:1.71 serial=9 path=/org/gnome/ScreenSaver; interface=org.gnome.ScreenSaver; member=Inhibit
method call sender=:1.185 -> dest=:1.71 serial=10 path=/org/gnome/ScreenSaver; interface=org.gnome.ScreenSaver; member=UnInhibit

When I open a video in firefox I see nothing

The bug is fixed in git and will be fixed in karmic too
