I'm having 2 problems which are currently proving intractable: i. The monitor (iiyama 4636D flat panel) doesn't blank, despite 'Standby after', 'Suspend after' and 'Power Off after' being set in the KDE3 Control Centre | PowerControl | Energy.
ii. If I leave the machine on and unattended for a while, the USB mouse (Logitech Pilot Optical) goes to sleep and won't wake up. I have to exit from the screen saver using the keyboard, and even Ctrl-Alt-Backspace (logging out of KDE3) and Ctrl-E (restarting the X server thereafter) have no effect so I'm forced to reboot. (The mouse is attached to a USB port on the iiyama's inbuilt hub; en passant the motherboard is an 'old but good' Asus P3B-F.). Any ideas? I can post up BIOS settings if needed, but they haven't changed from Windows XP days when there was no problem with power management. Also there's nothing obvious in the system log (apmd starts OK).
