I can fill in the details: When I run the computer, if I leave it idle
for ten minutes, the screen will cut off. My settings are all set for
the screen to shut off at a half hour at the earliest.

Conventionally, when the screen cuts off in the proper fashion (which I
can check via setting the screen cut off for 1 minute) the screen fades
to black. But when this ten-minute cutoff happens, the screen simply
immediately switches off.

I cannot attest to HOW it's happening. The previous comments are the
best guess at how these things happened.

Title:
  Screensaver activates at the wrong times in Oneiric

Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  In my up-to-date oneiric, screensaver is acting errantly. I switched
  the setting to 1 minute. The screen began fading away at the proper
  time. I then ran a video in totem for a time and the screen cut off at
  ten minutes (with no fading). I then cut off the video and the screen
  faded (as it should) after a minute.

  I cannot reliably determine what it is that the issue is. I have asked
  someone to repro the issue and they didn't seem to be affected. I've
  deleted all my settings files and the issue persists.
