Slim login manager not recovering from screen power save

[joelwhrs]

I have created a custom linux distro originating from the ubuntu server edition and have slim as the login manager, and openbox as the window manager. When it goes into power save mode and turns off the monitor and I move the mouse to wake it up it just goes to the shell with a mouse cursor on it. How can I get it to go right back to the openbox window manager?

I was messing around and removed slim and installed nodm and it still does the same thing, so I determined that it almost has to be something in the X server. Any ideas?
