Hi Kishore
Yep, upgraded to Kubuntu 8.1, which gave me KDE 4.1 as my default desktop.
As mentioned in my last note to g, I think it's guidance-power. Also, I
thought that I could just turn it off by going into System Settings -->
Display --> Power Control, and disabling it. I tried this last night,
left my desktop on, went to bed, woke up this morning, and it was still
asleep.
Take note, I did this, and didn't reboot. I'll try it again, rebooting
this time. Not sure if that matters.
Any help you folks can give is highly appreciative. And even though I
would like to use the power save/hibernation mode occasionally, I
definitely need to know how to turn it off when I need to.
Never had this problem with the plain KDE, which as I said, I was using
for a little over a year.
Thanks again,
Darryl
