Thanks Tormod Apologies for not filling in details, mine is not a fresh clean install, however:
The bug only started with XGL. Standard gnome-screensaver, with its gui options of 'Regard computer as idle' set to 2hours and 'Activite screen saver when idle', unchecked. In power manager all settings set to leave the screen alone - i.e. not blank or dim in either AC or Battery. I have edited settings in gconf to see if I can affect the blanking behaviour. and tried the the above (xorg) solution too. I will re-install soon and at that point be able to confirm this bug with details for replication. -- ATI restricted drivers + XGL + Gutsy = xscreensaver not working https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/181702 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
