Folks,
I did a upgrade to Ubuntu 9.10, everything works pretty well except now
when I watch a movie on the machine, the screen goes dark after a while.

I had never thought about it under 9.04 as this never happened, I am trying
to find where the act of watching a movie or video will keep the screen should
signal the power control part to not darken the screen, but so far no luck. I
was trying to google it but no luck.
