I noticed that my display (lcd panel) is no longer being put to "sleep" by ubuntu 8.04 since a couple of days ago (last update they rolled out)
The sleep function worked just fine with Hardy up to then (and with all previous ubuntu versions).
I didn't change anything in my powermanager config. Powermanager shows: "Put display to sleep when inactive for: 35 minutes" (on AC power, this is a desktop machine).
The Screensaver is set to launch after 30 minutes of inactivity, with a "Blank Screen", and also to lock the session. The screensaver does launch. But the lcd monitor stays "on" forever.
Anyone having the same issue? hints?
This is with NVIDIA 8600 / glx-new (accelerated) driver, and currently with Metacity (no compiz).
