KDE 4 and display power management

Dear all,
I noticed that the display power management of KDE 4 in Fedora gets
periodically broken. It was working just fine until the last xorg update
in Fedora 9 and then it got broken again. I was hoping it was fixed in
Fedora 10, but it is not.
The problem is that, if you enable any screensaver, you cannot get the
power management to work correctly: the screensaver will run forever
without allowing the power management module to switch off the monitor
after some time. I am experiencing this problem on two PCs with
different video cards.
Is there anybody else experiencing this problem? Any workaround (well,
except switching off the screensaver, which I have already done)?

I thank you in advance for your reply.

Best regards,
	Alberto
