Please run:
 xset dpms force off; sleep 7; xset dpms force on
This should turn off the screen (power saving) for 7 seconds, then turn it on again.

There are a lot of different issues and comments added to this bug report, and there is no feedback from the original reporter. I would suggest all of you file separate bug reports on your issues, where you focus on one issue and include all necessary information. The best way is to use "ubuntu-bug xserver-xorg-video-ati" for Radeon cards.
