Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager
I've recently installed Hardy on both my laptop (x86, Intel graphics) and my desktop PC (amd64, NVidia graphics) and gnome-power-manager is broken on both of them. It ignores its settings and sets all the DPMS timeouts to 0, disabling power saving. I usually use a ROX session instead of GNOME so I thought the problem might be due to it missing some component in GNOME, but if I run xset q in GNOME it also shows that the timeouts are all 0.
My current gnome-power-manager version is 2.22.1-1ubuntu4.
