$xset dpms force off - works as intended, the Xorg log shows that the DPMS module was loaded succesfully. yet the screen never goes to sleep, only blank. And if the screensaver activated, then, after a set period of time the screen saver activated, after a few more minutes the screen goes blank (but not turns off), and after a few more minutes screen saver reappears and stays on. -- [karmic] display doesn't go to DPMS sleep https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/385633 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
