Is gnome-screensaver even running (what is the output of "ps aux | grep gnome-screensaver")? If it is not running, then you might be hitting the timeout of the built-in Xorg screensaver, which gnome-screensaver normally disables. If it is, then please kill it, and run:
gnome-screensaver --debug --no-daemon 2>&1 | tee gnome-screensaver.log Let the screen blank as usual after 2 minutes, and then attach the resulting log file to this bug report ** Changed in: gnome-screensaver (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: gnome-screensaver (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Ubuntu Desktop Bugs (desktop-bugs) -- gnome-screensaver doesn't follow setting to increase blank screen interval https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/501518 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
