I'm running a fresh install of Maverick and encountering the same problem using a Lenovo X61 tablet. When I have the computer on the docking station with the lid closed, the external monitor will never sleep.
I did some troubleshooting and the problem stems from the fact that GPM ignores state changes whenever the lid is closed. While this may make perfect sense when the internal monitor is the only one active, it makes no sense when an external monitor is attached. Thank you, nightflow, for the perl-script fix. It worked perfectly, though it should not have been necessary in the first place. If additional logs, etc. would be helpful for fixing this bug, please let me know. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/550054 Title: Power Manager Not putting Monitor to Sleep -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
