http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/item/13875/ I have a dual-monitor setup and in the past I was using "Separate X-Sessions" for each monitor. I recently switched to "TwinView" and now my monitors won't go into sleep (power saving) state. I've tried changing the settings in System>Power Management>Display> "Put display to sleep when inactive for" but no matter what I set it to (for a time limit) it NEVER goes into sleep mode. I've left the computer on for hours on end, and they never go into sleep. But when I switch from "TwinView" to "Separate X-Screens" the monitors go to sleep right on time, EVERYTIME.

p.s. I am NOT using Compiz (don't know if that makes a difference or not).
System>Preferences>Appearance>Visual Effects = NONE.

p.s.s. Also bug report filed at Bugzilla: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=554247
