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
Please see: https://bugz.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/kde-guidance/+bug/65791 Seems to me to be this same bug.
This seems to be a duplicate of bug 128696. Look at the last comments there.
