If you are running xscreensaver, it is in charge of DPMS, period. That is by design and will not change. I don't understand what is wrong with your machine that you suffer the problems you describe, but breaking xscreensaver's connection to DPMS is no solution. -- Jamie Zawinski https://www.jwz.org/ https://www.dnalounge.com/ -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xscreensaver in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/924278 Title: xscreensaver doesn't enable DPMS Status in xscreensaver package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 dev with xscreensaver 5.15-2ubuntu1. The configuration menu xscreensaver-demo provides under the register Advanced the option "Power Management Enable". But this option doesn't enable DPMS (xset -q says "DPMS is Disabled") so the screen can never go in the standby mode. The only way to get it work is to call xset +dpms.
