When i first run enlightenment, screen blanking works fine. In settings > all > screen > blanking i have "enable screen blanking" and "use power saving" turned on, and the screen fades out and blanks after the specified timeout. No other settings are turned on, nor in the "wakeups" tab.
However.... after some indeterminate time (a few hours?) it stops working, and the screen will no longer blank. Going back into the settings and toggling the "enable" option on and off doesn't poke it back into working again. I've also tried "enlightenment_remote -restart", and that doesn't start it again either. Enlightenment has also crashed a few times with the "press F1" error message, and pressing F1 to restart also does not bring the blanking back. The only thing that works is to log out and back in again so that gdm restarts enlightenment. At that point it works again, for "a while". When the automatic blanking stops, i am able to manually do it with: xset dpms force suspend (but i don't get the nifty fade-out enlightenment gives me). I'm using enlightenment from git, and i just updated today to check if it's any better (it isn't). Is there a way to figure out what is going wrong, or if anything else is interfering with the blanking procoess?
