This message is a reminder that Fedora 7 is nearing the end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 7. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '7'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 7's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 7 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. If possible, it is recommended that you try the newest available Fedora distribution to see if your bug still exists. Please read the Release Notes for the newest Fedora distribution to make sure it will meet your needs: http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/ The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
This same problem exists in Fedora 8, so I updated to version to reflect that. Depending on what needs done, I may be able to help out.

Fedora 8 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-01-07. Fedora 8 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
This is still a problem in Fedora 10.
I am experiencing this problem in Fedora 11. I set "Put display to sleep when inactive for" to "Never" in Fedora 10 just prior to upgrade (actually a fresh install, preserving the home directory). That change stuck, but changes to the setting since the upgrade do not seem to be taking effect (i.e., inactive states do not appear to put my system to sleep).
Slight correction to my comment: changes to "Put display to sleep when inactive" DO seem to register on my system, but changes to "Put computer to sleep when inactive" DO NOT seem to register. Let me know if I should file a new bug report.
The original problem (and the blanking problem) should now be fixed in F11.
The most recent update of gnome-power-manager seems to have fixed this. Thanks!!
Looks like there is still a little work to be done. My computer just went to sleep even though I was using it. Display had been asleep, I came back, logged back in, and the computer went to sleep several minutes later. Earlier in the evening, the display went to sleep even though the computer was not idle. Let me know if there's any additional information I can provide and/or whether I should file a new bug report...
