Indeed "xset q" says that dmps is off :/ e enables dpms no matter what (unless blanking is off). unless something else modified dpms after e changed it... it should stay there. if you restart e it should go back to being set (ctrl+alt+end not log out and log in). acpid itself would not do this at all as it doesn't know about x. i suspect something like gnome-settings-daemon is doing this. poke there. > >>> The second is about icons: Applications menu is full populated with all > >>> applications, including my own in ~/.local/share/applications, but only > >>> 3 of them have an icon associated (a custom of mine, gnome-font-viewer > >>> and the E filemanager).
