I know :-((( ...

Workaround: Use the RGB connector for your monitor (I bet you're on
DVI)...

This patch enables gnome-power-manager able to switch the screen off.
(power saving)

It does not fix the blanking.

the only solution to the random blanking I found was connecting my
monitor to the PC with the VGA cable instead of the DVI cable..

In addition  to the screen randomly turning off I discovered that gnome-
power-manager is not able to turn off my monitor. If you are affected
you can test that easily by changing the time the screen should be
turned off to 1min and wait. My screen is turned off after 1min but
turned on again immediately.

See: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=594760

xset dpms force off can turn my screen off w/o any problems.

The problem is definitely not fixed for me. The screen still goes off
every hour for about 2 secs which is very annoying

is there anybody seeing this bug  using KDE or a different Desktop
Environment than Gnome? That would indicate that its a xorg issue.

If it is -- is there an upstream bug in xorg?

Fedora has three patches:

(1) xserver-1.6.3-sync-conditions.patch
(2) xserver-1.6.99-dpms.patch 
(3) xserver-1.6.99-eventtime.patch 

From what I see Ubuntu may be missing (2)
http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewvc/rpms/xorg-x11-server/F-11/xserver-1.6.99-dpms.patch?revision=1.1view=markup

The problem still exists for me. I was watching a movie yesterday and
the screen went off twice. (It came back after two seconds standby)

I wish I could somehow help debugging this!

According to http://www.x.org/wiki/Server16Branch both patches will be
merged in xserver-1.6.3[+1]. But for testing purposes it would be
definitely nice to have them patched in karmic.

Kudos to all working on these fixes!

The blanking bug is not yet fixed :-( ; still happens to me with the
latest xorg version in karmic.

there is still stuff pending; see also:
http://blogs.gnome.org/hughsie/2009/08/17/gnome-power-manager-and-blanking-removal-of-bodges/

or the fedora bug-report:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=501601

where people still experience this annoying bug.

greetings!
