Same problem in Maverick 10.10, fresh install. I've attached more information for this that may be helpful at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-power-manager/+bug/694016 The difference is that in my case, on 10.10, the bug only triggers when the laptop lid is closed. -- You recei

I'm running a fresh install of Maverick and encountering the same problem using a Lenovo X61 tablet. When I have the computer on the docking station with the lid closed, the external monitor will never sleep. I did some troubleshooting and the problem stems from the fact that GPM ignores state cha

My problem is still the same. I also upgraded to Meerkat. If I open the laptop lid and disable the laptop screen, the external screen will go to sleep. But this is not the way it is should be. Thanks for looking into the problem. On Sat, Oct 16, 2010 at 5:18 AM, Pedro Villavicencio wrote: > T

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. A new version of Gnome Power Manager is available on Maverick and we are wondering if this bug is still an issue for you with that version? Could you please test and comment back? Thanks in advance. ** Changed in:

I have the same problem. Dell laptop running 10.04 with external screen. I disabled the internal screen and made the external the primary one. The screen does not go to sleep. I tried the script but it did not work. Unlike with Tom Star, mine still does not work. Any suggestions or do we just

Hi nightflow, Initially when I used the command you posted, every time a signal was received with a member value ActiveChanged, the display was turned off immediately. So for some bizarre reason the interface name was totally ignored (e.g. when I plugged in/unplugged my USB pendrive, the displa

Seems there's an easy way to diagnose this. Just use the dbus-monitor to see what events are generated on your system when the screensaver activates and note the member name. Substitute that into the script and it should be triggered on the correct event generated on your system. In 9.04 and olde

Yes, I did set the screensaver to activate! The problem is that this script kept turning my external display off whenever I stopped moving the mouse -immediately! :-) Here is what I did: - Copied your Perl script from this webpage. - Pasted it into my editor (checked that it contains no malicious

Did you set your screensaver to activate? The script works by getting triggered by the screensaver event. Once triggered, it calls a command to set the monitor to standby. -- Power Manager Not putting Monitor to Sleep https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/550054 You received this bug notification bec

The same problem with Ubuntu 10.04, MSI CX600 notebook with ATI VGA card. As long as the lid is open, everything is fine. When I close it, the external display does not get turned off any more. I have tried the script above, but unfortunately it did not work. -- Power Manager Not putting Monitor

I had this same issue with Karmic. It seems gnome-power-manager gets confused when the laptop lid is closed and an external monitor is used instead as the primary display. I wrote a script to set the monitor to standby and I run it in System,Preferences,Startup Applications. $ cat poweroffextern
