Default I think this works

I set this up as soon as you posted (started with your previous post) because I was thinking of doing the same thing but didn't have the details. I've been having a tough time because I also recently got the Magic Trackpad and the Trackpad Driver Software Update, which now prevents my Mac from sleeping after idle. I ended up just using pmset to manually sleep my mac with sleepwatcher's idle command. As you might imagine, I wasn't having any issues with your fix after the Trackpad update at first because the darn computer never actually slept (I had display sleep timer the same as main sleep).

I would recommend more people try this fix and report results. The sleepwatcher I installed months ago was a bit easier to setup. I created a login agent/daemon to simply run my custom sleepwatcher command.
