Public bug reported: Recently upgraded to Ubuntu 22.04, and it seems like the power-saving feature in Gnome 42 does not actually turn off the screen(s) after X minutes, but just blanks them. When I manually run `xset dpms force off`, they do properly turn off and go to powersave mode.
1) Description: Ubuntu 22.04 LTS Release: 22.04 2) gnome-settings-daemon: Installed: 42.1-1ubuntu2 Candidate: 42.1-1ubuntu2 3) In Settings -> Power -> Screen Blank, set the inactivity period to 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, the screens should turn off. 4) Screens go black, but remain active and consume (too much) power. ** Affects: gnome-settings-daemon (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: jammy -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1971434 Title: Display powersave only blanks, but does not turn off Status in gnome-settings-daemon package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Recently upgraded to Ubuntu 22.04, and it seems like the power-saving feature in Gnome 42 does not actually turn off the screen(s) after X minutes, but just blanks them.
