Tried all of these settings none of them worked. I am going to try down grading the kernel from uname -a Linux monitor-dash 3.5.0-23-generic #35~precise1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jan 25 17:15:33 UTC 2013 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
Going to try these changes in dconf to see which setting is causing the issue. http://askubuntu.com/questions/207131/screensaver-blanking-problem http://askubuntu.com/questions/67355/how-do-i-completely-turn-off-screensaver-and-power-management dconf dump / | grep lock lock-screensaver-on-audio=false lock-enabled=false ubuntu-lock-on-suspend=false numlock-state='on' xtech@monitor-dash:~$ dconf dump / | grep power [com/canonical/indicator/power] [org/gnome/settings-daemon/plugins/power] xtech@monitor-dash:~$ dconf dump / | grep sleep sleep-display-ac=0 sleep-display-battery=0 xtech@monitor-dash:~$ dconf dump / | grep idle idle-activation-enabled=false idle-delay=uint32 0 xtech@monitor-dash:~$ dconf dump / | grep timeout xtech@monitor-dash:~$ dconf dump / | grep battery sleep-display-battery=0 tried these settings with xset http://crunchbang.org/forums/viewtopic.php?id=13990 xset s 0 xset s noexpose xset s noblank xset -dpms Have installed caffeine to try and fix this problem. http://www.liberiangeek.net/2012/12/temporarily-disable-screensaver-in-ubuntu-12-10-with-caffeine/ -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1125011 Title: screen save still active after being disabled To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1125011/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
