Following upgrade to 14.04, screens no longer power off following inactivity

[RecceDG]

After running an in-place upgrade from 12.04 LTS to 14.04 LTS, screens no longer power off following the inactivity timeout.

This function worked perfectly in 12.04 LTS.

I am running the latest Catalyst display drivers, installed from the AMD tarball. There have been no major issues with these drivers, and they are the same version as were installed in the functional 12.04 LTS system.

gnome-power-manager is installed and is the latest version, but I cannot find a gnome-power-manager executable.

Changing the duration of the inactivity timeout in power management settings makes no difference.

This is a desktop system with two monitors attached. Window manager is Compiz.

Further details provided on request.

We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all reported bugs in a timely manner.

Ubuntu 14.04 (trusty) reached end-of-life on April 25,2017.

Presumably this issue was resolved some time ago and this bug report can now be closed? I'm changing the status to "Incomplete" to allow this report to expire in the absence of any further comments.

Thank you for helping make Ubuntu better.
