I am currently using gnome-power-manager-2.28.1 (Ubuntu Karmic) and dpms
works almost completely fine, except that i cant get any display-timeout
above 10 minutes.
Is anyone else experiencing this?

I've got the same trouble.
gnome-power-manager-2.22.1 didn't set DPMS property.
gnome-power-manager --no-daemon --verbose --debug all

Today I did a diff between the xset q output when blank screen worked
and after blank screen did not work anymore: there were no differences.
Maybe this information is helpful. Please let me know if I should do
other tests.

Spack, can you confirm that 'xset dpms force off' turns your display
off?

dvstin, yes, with 'xset dpms force off' the display turns off.
I think an interesting thing is the comment from schmolch:
Currently the Screensaver is set to 9m and exactly after 9m of idle-time the
screen starts fading. Before it gets completely dark though it jumps back to
full brightness
Hi dvstin,
Thank you for your workaround. Unfortunately it doesn't work in my case.
When I had a look at the dpms status, it was enabled even if blank
screen doesn't work.
Servus, Spack

I have an idea for a workaround: in crontab add a new line 0 * * * *
DISPLAY=:0.0 xset +dpms. You can see that when you have this problem,
xset q shows that dpms is disabled, and after running xset +dpms, xset q
shows that dpms is enabled. Hopefully some people may find this
workaround handy. I
I have the same problem in 9.04 (and earlier versions). I also don't find
anything in the log files. But it seems to have something to do with the sound
card access. I recognised dpms not working after using flash video player in
the web or using songbird. Maybe it is an interessting fact, that
I just used skype with the same effect: blank screen and screensaver
doesn't work anymore.

Same problem in Jaunty.
It is gnome and gnome power manager to blame, everything works fine in xfce
with xfce power manager.
The screen tries do dimm down and right before its black it goes back to full
brightness.
Im really tired of this bug, since YEARS Gnome is not able to reliably dimm my
I'm seeing this behavior in Intrepid (kubuntu). Every few hours DPMS stops
working.
My timings are still there, but 'xset q' reports 'DPMS is Disabled'

Thanks for reporting this bug and any supporting documentation. Since
this bug has enough information provided for a developer to begin work,
I'm going to mark it as confirmed and let them handle it from here.
Thanks for taking the time to make Ubuntu better!
** Changed in: gnome-power-manager
I have the same problem. After boot it works, screen is shut-off after
configured time-out. But after a few hours it stops. Manually using xset
dpms force standby/suspend/off always works.
Currently using Ubuntu 8.04, but I have had this problem on previous versions
as well. Terrible that
