            Bug ID: 328573
           Summary: With radeon driver and 2-monitor system Screen Energy
                    Saving option doesn't work.
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: systemsettings
           Version: 4.11.4
          Platform: unspecified
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: alx.kuzza at gmail.com

Note: there was no issue with a previous KDE 4.9 either with radeon driver or
ATI proprietary driver.

Steps to reproduce:
1) Set "Screen Energy Saving" to predefined amount of time.
2) Don't set any screen savers or lockers.
3) Wait until a screen goes blank.

Expected result:
- Monitor(s) is completely turned off

Actual result:
- Monitor goes off for about 5 seconds, then it turns on for about 20-seconds,
then go off agan and that cycle never ends.

--------------------
Configuration:
OpenSuSE 12.2, 64-bit, 
Intel Motherboard DQ77MK, 
i7-2600 processor
ATI FirePro 2460 video card with radeon driver with 2 monitors attached via a
DisplayPort interface.

Same result with OpenSuse 13.1 installed fresh.

Note: with ATI proprietary driver when a screen goes blank it makes a garbage
on both screens and the only option is to get to the console and reset to
runlevel 3.
