On systems that I've done a fresh install of 12.10 on, I have not noticed this bug. However, on systems that I've upgraded from 12.04 to 12.10, I do experience this bug. This bug may not be limited to upgraded installations of 12.10, but I thought I'd note that this has been my own experience.

I tried the dconf settings emptythevoid posted above, but the monitors still blank after about 5 or 10 minutes. The other annoying thing is they never shut off, they just go blank. I've found if I've got a video playing with smplayer or something like that, it follows the time limit set in

Lonnie, if you feel comfortable making the changes, you could try using dconf editor and seeing if the above settings help you. I know that this isn't the proper update-fix you're looking for, but this is all I'm able to do myself. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member
