I had the same problem once after updating my System file, but it wasn't
intermittent.  I found (or thought that I found) that the "Monitors" file
was required in the System folder to make these features work.  Since then
I haven't had any recurrences of the problem.  I did have a similar problem
occur lately, though.  Shift-Command-> (increase font size) would not work,
although Shift-Command-< did work.  Rebooting solved the problem.
