Bug Description

Binary package hint: kde-systemsettings

Steps to reproduce:
open K menu > System Settings > Monitor > Energy
set Turn off monitor after to say, 1 minute (any setting will do)
click Apply
# it will now work for this section
Turn off computer ( maybe only logout will do)
Turn on :)
open K menu > System Settings > Monitor > Energy
see the setting changed to 1 hour (or 60 times whatever you had set)

The ~/.kde/share/config/displayconfigrc is set correctly and does not get changed.
The displayconfig-restore script works correctly at the very startup of the kde section. By the end of the startup process, something I was not able to determine what, changes the xserver setting to 60 times what it was.
