Description Richard Hughes 2009-06-08 08:29:08 UTC 
Setting the DPMS mode with DPMSForceLevel resets IDLETIME. It shouldn't. This breaks gnome-power-manager in spectacular ways when it tries to blank the screen when idle when not using DPMSSetTimeouts.
Comment 1 Bastien Nocera 2013-01-19 00:25:43 UTC 
I'm guessing that's been fixed, as gnome-desktop's gnome_rr_screen_set_dpms_mode() doesn't reset idle time.

Pretty sure this doesn't happen anymore.
