Yeah, I upgraded to Jaunty 9.04, and it still remains. I have a feeling it has something to do with the fact that I installed xscreensaver a while back. I have since removed xscreensaver, but the problem remains.
The work-around I am currently using is I created two small bash scripts: #!/bin/sh # dpms-off.sh vbetool dpms off & #!/bin/sh ### # dpms-on.sh vbetool dpms on And then I setup desktop shortcuts for each script and then keyboard shortcuts for each script: Ctrl+Alt+0 Ctrl+Alt+1 Respectively. And now when I want to manually put my monitors in sleep I use "Ctrl+Alt+0" and to wake them up when I return I use "Ctrl+Alt+1" ** Attachment added: "dpms-on.sh" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/32325724/dpms-on.sh -- Dual Monitors won't SLEEP in TwinView mode https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/275308 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
