Thanks Ted!
I never realized that. I've always been frustrated by this feature,
because I wanted my monitor to turn off much sooner than 21 minutes, and
no where did it say that I had to adjust the screensaver
(entertainment?) settings to fully utilize my power management (energy
saving) settings
The value is 1 minute more than what you've set your screensaver for.
So if you've set the screensaver for 20 minutes, the screen can blank on
21. It will go down if you adjust your screensaver values.

Thanks!

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu

For me (on hardy, but it was the same on gutsy) the minimum is 11
minutes, but I agree that a minimum of 1 minute makes sense, I think 11
minutes is too long in certain conditions. A friend of mine was also
complaining about this. Should not be too hard to set to lower I guess.
