 Posted: Wed Jul 13, 2005 6:46 am Post subject: no more display power management since KDE 3.4.1 |
 |
|
Or is it xorg 6.8.2, which came about the same time ?
I have no more power suspend or power off for the monitor, though everything is set through kcontrol.
Can anyone tell me where to look at ?
Thanks in advance |

I have the same problem, however I have a script that runs on acpid and it doesn't work... So I think its something to do with acpi in the kernel.
What kernel do you use?
I have: 2.6.13-rc2-mm1

Try adding Option "DPMS" in your xorg.conf file. This worked for me:
| Code: | Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Monitor0"
VendorName "AOC"
ModelName "7F"
HorizSync 30.0 - 72.0
VertRefresh 50.0 - 160.0
Option "DPMS"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Monitor1"
VendorName "Daewoo"
ModelName "431X"
HorizSync 30.0 - 60.0
Vertrefresh 50.0 - 60.0
Option "DPMS"
EndSection

err ... I don't have a xorg.conf file !
I have my old X86config, which is properly used (because it loads the nvidia drivers).
in this file, I have already the option DPMS set ...
Any idea ? |

The fact that you are using xfree and nvidia and I'm using xorg and ATI supports my idea that acpi is having problems...
Don't know why though.

Sorry I was confused. I thought you said you were using xfree86. What you said (and I missed) was that Xorg uses your xf86config file...
So the only thing eliminted is video cards... I still think its a kernel bug.

I don't think it is a kernel bug : I did not change my kernel with the change of KDE versions ...
And the feature works with KDE 3.3.2.
Also, it "may" be working now. I just modified and re-set the values of the power saving times, and it "seems" to work now. |

Where did you reset the values? Is that in the Control Center?
