Ubuntu 14.04 (trusty) reached end-of-standard-support on April 25, 2019. I'm setting the status of this bug to 'Incomplete' as it's not seen any activity for some time. If this is still an issue when using a currently maintained release of Ubuntu then please let us know which one(s) otherwise this bug report can be left to expire in approximately 60 days time. ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1311880 Title: screen locks after timeout even when configured not to Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: in System Settings, "Brightness & Lock", "Turn screen off when inactive for:" is set to "Never", the screen is automatically turned off after 5 minutes of inactivity. HIGHLY annoying behavior when running in a VM, and in my workflow, extremely disruptive.
