Robert, my observations show that the problem is not that proper setting are *not applied*, but that they are *overridden* with wrong values afterwards.
(It conceivable though that g-s-d may be applying the "wrong" values after my display-setup-script has applied the "right" ones. Can you tell where to check the settings that are applied by g-s-d run from the greeter?) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to unity-greeter in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1245474 Title: [regression] on login screen, monitor stays on forever Status in One Hundred Papercuts: Confirmed Status in The Ubuntu Power Consumption Project: Confirmed Status in “unity-greeter” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: I am not sure which package sould be responsible for that, probably either xorg-server or lightdm. Previously, up to raring, when you left the computer alone while it was showing the login screen (lightdm in my case), the monitor would turn off after five or ten minutes. Since upgrade from raring to saucy, monitor stays on indefinitely, after boot and after logout likewise. This is on two machines, one a notebook with Intel graphics, another desktop with Radeon using open source driver. I guess maybe setting up DPMS got broken in the process of migration to Mir and back to xorg. --- .tmp.unity.support.test.0: ApportVersion: 2.12.5-0ubuntu2.1 Architecture: amd64 CompizPlugins: [core,composite,opengl,compiztoolbox,decor,vpswitch,snap,mousepoll,resize,place,move,wall,grid,regex,imgpng,session,gnomecompat,animation,fade,unitymtgrabhandles,workarounds,scale,expo,ezoom,unityshell] CompositorRunning: compiz CompositorUnredirectDriverBlacklist: '(nouveau|Intel).*Mesa 8.0' CompositorUnredirectFSW: true DistUpgraded: 2013-10-26 13:27:24,614 DEBUG enabling apt cron job DistroCodename: saucy DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.10 DistroVariant: ubuntu ExtraDebuggingInterest: Yes GraphicsCard: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
