Can anyone tell me how to make the darn monitor turning itself off every 10 minutes when there is no activity? I have the screen saver set to OFF, and the power management set to IGNORE (off) but still the damn thing goes into standby mode - most annoying. And setting the screensaver to activate 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

Another thought is to check your BIOS for power savings options and disable them there. Bernd
