Hmm, on my computer, the screenblank script works as expected. However, the gnome-screensaver lock command only locks the screen, it does not trigger the ACPI blank screen event. I already have a script which turns out to be similar to screenblank.sh, but apparently the only way to make the computer automatically turn off the monitor when the screen is locked using the Ubuntu Fast User Switcher Applet is to monitor dbus for the SessionIdleChanged signal and execute that script when it happens. -- Regards, Roshan George <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, email [email protected] with "unsubscribe <password> <address>" in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
