1340878	2013-05-22 06:30:00	my mum's monitor wont turn off when left alone. idealy id like the monitor to switch off after 10min and the entire system to sleep or hibernarte after 15. less is probably ideal with boots this fast. right now the scrren blanks but the bascklight stays on. hhave a great day.

1340880	2013-05-22 10:42:00	i ticked the turn monitor off box. still just blanks the screen. connected via VGA, no other connector on the $99 monitor. this shouldnt make a difference.	Mirddes (10)
1340881	2013-05-22 12:45:00	Are we still talking about Xubuntu? Since I see no checkbox called "turn monitor off" on mine. Bear in mind that what xscreensaver seems to call "Blank Screen" means "Start Screensaver" For me, under the advanced tab, there's a box to enable power management. It works fine on my machine, turns both my monitors off (connected via DVI)	Agent_24 (57)
1340882	2013-05-23 01:08:00	correct, xubuntu under the advanced tab, these powermanagement options seem to have no effect. blanking the screen is the most progress i have made.	Mirddes (10)
1340883	2013-05-23 02:39:00	Maybe it's a bug. What version of Xubuntu are you using? I have the 12.04 LTS version.	Agent_24 (57)
1340884	2013-05-23 11:03:00	13.04. painlessly detected the $5 802.11n USB i bought from dx.com	Mirddes (10)
