Hi Yan-hoose, hi All,
>From my side, I went further in my investigations and I've found an
acceptable solution for my case. I read recently that the screen driver
might cause some issues due to some incompatibility with Ubuntu 13.10.
So I went in "System parameters", then "Softwares and updates", then the
"additional drivers" tab. I ticked there the first checkbox "Usage of
server X X.org..." (I'm trying to translate from French to English the
original text) instead of the 2nd one ("Usagve of video driver for...
AMD... fglrx-updates..."). I've attached the screenshot of the complete
window (in French), in case it can help to understand the details.
In my case, it fixed 2 issues:
- after waking up from a sleeping mode, the computer screen is now able to turn
the light off, after a certain time (I found out recently that I encountered
this bug only after waking from sleeping mode)
- this screen driver is now able to manage correctly the brightness manual
change (only difference with the other driver: the brightness levels are now 4
instead of something like 6 or 8 previously, but it's much better than nothing
or very random result).
The only bug that is remaining for me is that when I close the lid of my
laptop, it goes to sleeping mode instead of shutting down (setup made
previously with "tweak tool").
Important detail: my computer is a netbook laptop ACER ASPIRE ONE 722
C62KK (AMD dual core processor c60).

Title:
13.10: screen does not turn off after x minutes of inactivity
Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
I've just upgraded from Ubuntu 13.04 to 13.10. All is apparently
working fine except the screen that does not turn off anymore after
the time defined in "turn the screen off after xxx minutes". I saw
that a similar bug was opened (#1228939) but is now considered as
fixed. Indeed my bug is a little different: the option is correctly
saved, but not applied. It seems, I'm not the only one to face this
problem. I haven't found this bug in launchpad, except the closed one
just mentionned.
