It seems to be the new normal. Just click a mouse button and it will wake up the screen.

Click to expand...
Same on my iMac with the Magic Trackpad. Have to click it now or hit a key on the keyboard to wake it up.

I actually have to click the mouse 2-3 times before the monitor wakes up. I can hear the hard drive kick in and slow down again after every click.

My intel Mini has always done this, even with SL.

But yes, 10.7 on my iMac does do this. What Schweb said should work.
