Bug Description
Intel(R) Core(TM) i5 CPU 650 @ 3.20GHz
Ubuntu 2.6.38-8.42-generic 2.6.38.2
I upgraded to 12.04 it seems that I have no control over screen timeouts (which are blank). Also, on occasion and overnight the system seems to lock with a frozen desktop requiring a reboot. I have turned off everything I could think of (See below) and the problems presist. I have to continually move my mouse or strike a key to resume a video (MLBTV for example). Am I missing something elementary since I find this most annoying.
