Desktop reflow when monitor goes to sleep

I've never seen so many errors in that log file before. I think you are having driver issues. Based on what I've read lately about ATI drivers it seems likely.

Anyway: Let's try something. open a terminal and type:

xset dpms 60 90 120

Then wait. The monitors should go off in a minute and at the same time. If they do and your desktop looks normal when you wake them up, then try a longer time until you're happy, then put the command in /etc/rc.local. If it doesn't help. we'll have to try something else.

I don't know why your monitors are going off at all. dpms says it's disabled and xorg says so too.

I gave that a try, and the monitors went black at the same time after 1 minute. After that, though, they tried to enter sleep mode. This caused the same issue that's been happening. I'm not sure what is making them go into sleep mode, it seems to be the monitors themselves but I can't see anything in their settings (through the menu button on the side of the monitor). However, that doesn't make sense to me, as I never saw this issue before the upgrade.
