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.

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.
