I'm on Xubuntu 14.04 LTS and this bug still affects me. Though it seems like the fact that it's still broken is known and will not be fixed?
This is pretty embarrassing, guys... it's 2015 now. The most basic functionality of one of the most basic features of my operationg system does not work at all. The solution is to upgrade my OS? Or pop open my terminal? For a bug that was filed YEARS ago? That screensaver timeout should: A) be turned off, or B) have some interface to change it besides "xset". Gah, sorry to rant. My annoyance should probably be directed at the Xubuntu project overall, or maybe XFCE, rather than the power manager specifically? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1193716 Title: Xfce Power Manager does not override the screen saver timeout (X11 Screen Saver extension) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xfce4-power-manager/+bug/1193716/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
