Bug#541623: I have exactly the same problem

[Pedro Ribeiro]

Package: gnome-power-manager
Version: 2.24.4-3
Severity: normal

I have the same problem as the poster above. g-p-m doesn't respect the DPMS settings in the Power Management section of gnome-control-center. It completely ignores my DPMS settings. Running xset -q returns 
DPMS (Energy Star):
  Standby: 0    Suspend: 0    Off: 0
Even after setting 10 minutes as the monitor shutoff time. 
I'm using squeeze and this problem appeared a few months ago. My gnome package versions are also mismatched as with the poster above.
gnome-power-manager v2.24.4-3
gnome-session v2.26.2-1
gnome-screensaver v2.28.0-1
gnome-settings-daemon v2.26.1-2

I know we must be subjected to this in testing but if you be great if you could somehow keep gnome packages from migrated alone.
