Ubuntu 19.04 - xset dpms force off
will turn monitors off, but somehow they wakeup in 10 seconds again. So not sure if this is a bug in screensaver, but it is a nasty and COSTLY bug. It will burn 100 watts (3 monitors) and lower lifetime of my monitors. What's the use of a screensaver or power mode, when it doesn't power off monitors. -- 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/1292041 Title: Lockscreen doesn't turn off the screen Status in OEM Priority Project: Fix Released Status in OEM Priority Project trusty series: Fix Released Status in Unity: Fix Released Status in gnome-screensaver package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in unity package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: [ATTENTION] This bug report is strictly for lockscreen.
