Using Ubuntu 8.04.1 (up to date)
I have a dual-monitor setup and in the past I was using "Separate X-Sessions"
for each monitor. I recently switched to "TwinView" and now my monitors won't
go into sleep (power saving) state. I've tried changing the settings in
System>Power Management>Display> "Put display to sleep when inactive for" but
no matter what I set it to (for a time limit) it NEVER goes into sleep mode.
I've left the computer on for hours on end, and they never go into sleep. But
when I switch from "TwinView" to "Separate X-Screens" the monitors go to sleep
right on time, EVERYTIME.
So something is wrong with TwinView. I am fairly new to the Linux and Ubuntu
community, so I don't know how to self-diagnose this issue, but if someone can
point me in the right direction I don't mind posting log files etc.
Thanks in advance for any/all help,
-BassKozz
p.s. I am NOT using Compiz (don't know if that makes a difference or not).
System>Preferences>Appearance>Visual Effects = NONE.
