Description

xfce4-screensaver --version: 0.1.8

I'm selecting xfce-blank in xfce4-screensaver-preferences. I set "Activate screensaver when computer is idle" to off. xset q shows: Screen Saver: prefer blanking: no allow exposures: no timeout: 900 cycle: 900 I'd expect xfce-blank to issue something like "xset s off" when turning this option off.

When "Activate screensaver when computer is idle" is active and you try to directly enter the number of minutes, the change is discarded if you don't press +/- at least once.

Settings done in the xfce-blank configuration dialog are not reflected in the dpms settings (xset q). DPMS (Energy Star): Standby: 1200 Suspend: 0 Off: 1800 DPMS is Enabled Monitor is On

Configure everything to never in "xfce4-screensaver-configure xfce-blank": DPMS (Energy Star): Standby: 1200 Suspend: 0 Off: 1800 DPMS is Enabled Monitor is On

xfce4-power-manager is not running

Version: 0.1.8
