Bug Description
since recent updates to intrepid my monitors will not go to sleep any more. this has started occurring in the last week. not sure which package update has caused it though.
I am using nvidia drivers with twinview setup, I have tried both the current versions of the 173 and 177 branches of the nvidia drivers and still get this problem. unfortunately I cannot try the 'nv' driver as I can get this to work with DVI connections to my monitors for some reason.
I have also noticed that gnome-screensaver does not appear to be working, it fades to a blank screen and then after about 0.5 secs returns to the desktop. not sure if this related to the power management issues though.
#lsb_release -rd
