I am running Kubuntu Precise beta 64bit with the 3.2.0-22 generic kernel on an Acer 7739-6830 which uses an Intel HD3000 graphics chip. I do not have screen saver activated, and powersave is off. I do not use sleep or hibernation, but both are set to power down this laptop. Regardless of what I am doing or what app is open, if any, after about 5 minutes of no mouse movement the screen goes black.
I've tried "seterm" and "xset" to no avail. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-screensaver in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/97251 Title: screen turns off after 20 minutes even when playing in fullscreen Status in “gnome-screensaver” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “totem” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Binary package hint: totem This is new in feisty. When I watch videos in full screen, I usually stop using the mouse. When I do this, I find that the screen blanks after just about exactly 20 minutes. I posted this to ubuntu-users a couple weeks ago: Hi, I have two machines running feisty that I like to watch DVDs and videos on. Unfortunately, there's a feisty regression that's affecting me that causes the display to shut off after about 20 minutes exactly. I have screensaver and power management turned off, and I'm using totem, which should be squelching that anyway. I imagine it's either a problem with the opensource radeon driver, or some ACPI Xorg setting that gnome-power-manager isn't controlling.
