I can confirm the same problem with Karmic Alpha6 + updates, running on a EEE 1000H netbook
If screensaver(Black screen) and powermanager both is set to switch off the screen after for example 1 minute: - The screen fades out after exactly 1 min., then the backlight turns off but switch on again right after. If screensaver is set to 1 minute and powermanager to never: - The screen fades out after exactly 1 min., but the backlight stays on. (as expected) If screensaver is set to something higher than 1 min., but powermanager to 1 minute: (makes no sense to do, but describes the bug) - The backlight switch off after 100 secunds, but turns on right after. Doing that the screensaver is reset and never kicks in. Left idle the backlight will switch off on again every 100 secunds. -- Monitor Doesn't Turn off With Power Management (Intrepid, Jaunty) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/289728 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
