Description Lithium 2006-10-31 01:54:22 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.5)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
OS:                Linux

The time setting for the monitor power saving is reverting to the default setting after each reboot. For example, if I configure it to switch off after 30 mins, after a reboot it will reset to 5 hours.

This bug is similar to Bug 128696, except this is happening in KDE 3.5.5 and the default time seems to be 5 hours.  The only way I can get DPMS OffTime to work properly is by using 'xset' at the command-prompt after every reboot.
(example:  xset dpms 0 0 1800)

By the way, I'm using Kubuntu 6.10

I have exactly the same problem, also running Kubuntu 6.10 with KDE 3.5.5

Seems to me to be this same bug.

This seems to be a duplicate of bug 128696. Look at the last comments there.
