Thanks for sticking with this. If it is still an issue, you're right - it's obviously not a duplicate. I'm unmarking as such.
See: http://blogs.gnome.org/hughsie/2009/08/17/gnome-power-manager-and-blanking-removal-of-bodges/ There appears to be a broken idletimer within x. Your bug may be related to this. Hopefully this will be fixed soon with merges, otherwise we'll need to get these fixes into x. ** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 407491 [karmic] gnome-power-preferences not storing settings ** Changed in: gnome-power-manager (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed ** Changed in: gnome-power-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium -- Karmic upgrade not shutting off backlight after time https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/413168 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
