So this "fix" seems to cause Kernels released with zesty (and newer) keep the monitor always ON. No blanking, and no power down either.
Before this fix, a clean install of Ubuntu server would signal the monitor to sleep/standby after a short while. Now the default behavior is to leave the monitor always on, wasting power. While blanking itself should be negligible to power savings and monitor longevity, sleep states are still an important feature. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1767568 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/869017 Title: Ubuntu server enables screenblanking, concealing crashdumps (DPMS is not used) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kbd/+bug/869017/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
