   I just replaced my CRT with an LCD monitor.  It is an Acer AL2223Wd.   
      
   I reconfigured xorg, and it works OK, with minor text editing to xorg.conf.   
      
   But, Kubuntu 6.10 no longer turns off the monitor.  It starts the screen   
   saver as I set, but it does not turn off the monitor like it did with the   
   Energy Star CRT I had.   
      
   Also, it no longer requires a password to repaint the screen after it is   
   blanked.  I can't find where to configure these functions, but could   
   before I reconfigured for the new LCD monitor.   
      
   Where are those Energy Star fucntions?  Is there just a problem with LCD   
   monitors not being supported?   
      
   TIA.
