Public bug reported: DPMS is a key component in any system where power-savings are important (laptops). Right now the instructions to activate DPMS are scarce and unintuitive.
I wasn't able to get it to work properly before reading the following blog post: http://elliotth.blogspot.com/2006/09/ubuntu-606-and-dpms.html DPMS ought to be automagically enabled at system start OR have an easy- to-check box somewhere under gnome-power management. ** Affects: Ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- DPMS needs to be easier to setup and configure https://launchpad.net/bugs/67824 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
