You have been subscribed to a public bug: Since unchecking the check boxes in the screen saver section of most of the later versions of Ubuntu that are "supposed" to turn off the functioning of screen savers or blanking screen after a certain period of inactivity do NOT seem to work, then it would be nice if someone would consider putting a text message on that screen that basically says that if you really don't want the screen to go blank after a certain period of inactivity what you need to do is to run this SUDO command at the terminal: XSET S NOBLANK.
