I can confirm this on Wetab with plasma-active-wetab-exopc-tablet-mer-devel-120805-1940.iso. Power management seems seriously messed up atm. We have two places with possibly conflicting settings, very strange defaults (sending a mobile device to sleep after 60 minutes? That doesn't make sense...) and none of them actually seem to work (my devices always suspends after five minutes as well, no matter what I set in both settings and even on AC power!) We really need to get power management working, since it's really important on a mobile device.

The fixed pushed in basyskom-plasma-active-archos-gen9-omapfb-tablet-mer-testing-release-rc3 works now on Archos G9. No more bug. Great.
Sorry, comment 3 is to delete. Not related to that bug. Sorry.
See bug #310506 comment #3.
On the Wetab i have to disable power management, so i can work. After an update, screen brightness can go to 100%. After abotu 20 minutes, the screen gets darker and it is no longer possible to change the brightness.
I can confirm that on my WeTab. After a while (far less than the 60 minutes shown in Settings), the screen actually goes off and won't turn on again unless you suspend an resume again. Not sure if that's actually a PA problem or maybe a kernel problem.

Brightness problems are at bug #312579 (In reply to comment #7) > I can confirm that on my WeTab.

If you can get a konsole up can you tell me the result of 'xset -q' right now, and just after the screen turns off (do 'sleep XX; xset -q' with XX being whatever time it takes for the screen to turn off plus ten seconds). Can you also get the result just before the screen turns off, for completeness?
Git commit c07f1381545005d64e72e0699c9f0de37b492f62 by Oliver Henshaw. Committed on 25/03/2013 at 17:34. Pushed by oliverhenshaw into branch 'oliverhenshaw/power-timeouts'. Suspend idle timeouts are stored in milliseconds Was storing in centiseconds(?) and in seconds in one place. Meant that suspend was activated much too soon. Suspend timeouts are currently commented out due this problem but should work properly when or if they are re-enabled.
