I wonder if anyone else has seen this. This is F12, gnome, nouveau video driver. I have my screensaver setup as Regard computer as idle after 1 minute Power management: Put display to sleep when inactive for 5 minutes Sometimes the screen blanks, sometimes it doesn't. I can't find any real pattern to this: recently the screensaver/power down seemed to stop working for days, and then it started working yesterday. I was wondering if this was maybe related to running a vnc server, but it's very hard to tell. Any ideas?
I had observed on an F12 machine that uses the mach64 driver that the monitor won't get powered off if no keyboard or mouse activity occurs after a reboot. gdm is configured to autologin, so a reboot automatically logs me into my desktop. If I do not touch the keyboard or mouse, the screensaver will kick in, but the monitor won't get turned off.
I have to punch something to the keyboard. Only then, after a suitable delay, would the monitor get powered off.
