[lubuntu] Power manager settings not applying in lubuntu 14.04.1

Hey everybody

I couldn't really find the perfect sub-forum to which I should post this, so this will have to suffice, since it is an issue with a downgrade.

On an ASUS Eee PC R101, I'm ruing lubuntu 14.04.1 due to exteal monitor output issues with later versions.

I go into Xfce Power Manager and change the settings as follows:

Under both "On AC" and "On Battery", I set the following:
"When laptop lid is closed:" "[do] Nothing"
"Put the computer to sleep when inactive for:" to "Never"
"Put display to sleep when computer is inactive for:" to "Never"
"Switch off display when computer is inactive for:" to "Never"
"Reduce screen brightness when computer is inactive for:" to "Never"

However none of these settings seem to apply properly. When I shut my screen, my computer still goes into suspend mode and if left inactive for a while, the computer still shuts off and locks the screen.

If you could give me any ideas on how to fix this, I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks
