I don't believe this is still occurring for me running the development version of precise. Hard to say what/when it was fixed, but it's working for me now.

I recently switched to "TwinView" and now my monitors won't go into sleep (power saving) state. I've tried changing the settings in System>Power Management>Display> "Put display to sleep when inactive for" but no matter what I set it to (for a time limit) it NEVER goes into sleep mode. I've left the computer on for hours on end, and they never go into sleep. But when I switch from "TwinView" to "Separate X-Screens" the monitors go to sleep right on time, EVERYTIME. So something is wrong with TwinView. I am fairly new to the Linux and Ubuntu community, so I don't know how to self-diagnose this issue, but if someone can point me in the right direction I don't mind posting log files etc. Thanks in advance for any/all help, -BassKozz p.s. I am NOT using Compiz (don't know if that makes a difference or not). System>Preferences>Appearance>Visual Effects = NONE.
