Attached are outputs from "ps aux" and "pstree", there are a lot of processes but I can't understand what could be messing with dpms settings. >> There is another gnome related process which is launched at startup: >> at-spi2-registryd, the accessibility daemon, launched with the option >> --use-gnome-session.

Looks like it's started by systemd. If I manually restart E it enables dpms; maybe that restart you are talking doesnìt occur for some reason? >>>>>>>>>>> The second is about icons: Applications menu is full populated with >>>>>>>>>>> all applications, including my own in ~/.local/share/applications, >>>>>>>>>>> but only 3 of them have an icon associated (a custom of mine, >>>>>>>>>>> gnome-font-viewer and the E filemanager).
