We have two DP 2.0 G5s at work. After one of these recent updates, I guess 10.4.7, neither will sleep. The display goes black, but the computer doesn't sleep. I re-installed OSX on one of them, and it was fine until I ran software update. Any ideas? Is anyone else with a DP 2.0 having problems?

It isn't necessarily OS X fault for not sleeping. What kind of peripheral (printer, scanner, etc) do you have attached to these machines? I seem to have had this problem with my machine but its because of the drivers for my printer (Cannon i4000 and my Scanjet 5500). I have figured out how make my machine go to sleep with these devices installed.

Nothing is hooked up to one machine, and a printer is hooked up to the other. From searching around on other forums, there seems to be a problem with a recent update. Hopefully it'll be fixed soon.
