I don't think this has to do with the 2.6 kernel.. my mouse movements have always awakened my monitor(dpms). > 2. KDE screenlock.

I had a similiar issue with xlock ... traced it down to a missing pam config file. wonder if this helps...

Your init scripts may need some tweaking... some entries in /proc have changed a bit from 2.4.
