Description of problem:
The monitor will not suspend or turn off after the specified time under "Display
Power Management" in the Screensaver preferences.  Instead the display will
remain on with a black screen.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Activate Xscreensaver
2. Allow the specified idle time to pass for power management to activate
3. Monitor doesn't suspend or turn off
	

Actual Results:  monitor stays on with a black screen

Expected Results:  monitor should enter suspended mode, or turn off completely

Additional info:

i am running an HP xt926, but was unsuccessful in finding the actual video card
information.  the video card is set to "VESA driver (generic)" with 8 megabytes
of memory using the "vesa" driver.

the monitor i own is a ViewSonic VA720 flat panel display.

Hi,

This bug is quite old now.  Given the lack of activity on this report and the
likelihood that this bug has already been fixed, I am going to close it.  If you
encounter the problem discussed in this report with Fedora Core 3 or a recent
version of xscreensaver, feel free to reopen.

Thanks
