I am using KDE 3.0 on LM 9.0. The monitor power saving features (standby, suspend and power off ) were working fine except that they interfered with ripping a DVD which went on for a long period and so I disabled them from Configure>KDE>Power Control>Energy.
After succesfully ripping the DVD I tried to re-enable Power Saving but no luck, the screen never blanks. A bit of digging showed that when trying to re-enable the menu's command "kcmshell energy" puts rubbish in file ~/.kde/share/config/kcmdisplayrc, I have edited this to be the same as /usr/share/config/kcmdisplayrc ie ====================================== [DisplayEnergy] displayEnergySaving=true displayPowerOff=45 displayStandby=15 displaySuspend=30 ===================================== but still no screen blanking. The other apparent fault is that ~/.kde/share/config/kcminitrc is completely blank ie 0kb and I don't know what it should contain. If anyone can give me any pointers onthis problem or post the contents of their ~/.kde/share/config/kcminitrc I would be very grateful. Regards Pete Ardnamurchan Scotland
