Can anyone tell me how to make the darn monitor turning itself off every

and the

after
240 minutes has no effect- the standby mode still kicks in.
You don't mention where are configuring those settings, because there are
several. I'd have a look at /etc/X11/xorg.conf:
Section "ServerFlags" Option "AllowMouseOpenFail" Option "RandR" "on" # Option "BlankTime" "10" Option "StandbyTime" "20" Option "SuspendTime" "25" Option "OffTime" "30" EndSection
Confuguring them on the Desktop, Control Centre, and Yast Modules.
I only one entry under the Section you show above and that is the first one, "AllowMouse..." which, in effect, means that I do not have BlankTime nor StandByTime nor any of the others. Yet the monitor insists on falling asleep after 10 minutes.
Cheers.

Make sure that --
Configure Desktop / Display / Power Control has the "Enbable display power management" unchecked.

Yep, one of the very first things to be turned off when I first booted 10.0. Cheers. -- Don't argue with an idiot, people may not see the difference.
