Public bug reported:

Since version 3.x, on a fresh install, GDM uses the gnome-power-manager
defaults as-is  for its greeter session. This has the unfortunate
consequence of putting the host to sleep after 30 minutes, which is not
desirable in a situation when the same host is meant to provide network
services. This is even less acceptable considering how the new dconf-
based GNOME configuration system makes it extremely tedious for the user
to fix this manually later on e.g. 'gksu -u gdm gnome-control-center'
won't work, because dconf tools expect a direct access to the display
and yet the new GNOME3 environment no longer has any proper tool to
configure GDM sessions the same way that GDM2 did.
