Package: gnome-session
Version: 3.4.2.1-3
Severity: normal
Hello,
I installed gnome on my system
when I run it the screen never blanks.
If I run
xset dpms 900 960 1020
in a terminal the screen blanks until I restart gnome session.
I have 'Turn screen off setting' in 'Brightness and Lock' set to 10
minutes (default?) but the screen does not blank.
