I have a linux certified 64 bit laptop running Hardy Heron 64. I also installed the Kubuntu desktop.
When running Gnome, when I close my laptop up, the screen turns off, as a laptop should. When running kde, however, it does not. It stays on until my screen timeout 5 minutes later. (I double checked by simply pressing the button under the screen to confirm my suspicions).
Is there a utility I need to install in KDE to do this? Or some setting I need to set?
Overall, it seems my KDE desktop seems less aware its on a laptop than my Gnome desktop. Are there laptop settings somewhere in KDE I can change?
