I am not sure what exactly is zubuntu, and could not be bothered to
look it up - perhaps switching to KDE/GNOME would fix that for you.
I think he means Xubuntu, which many pronounce 'zubuntu.'
Yep. My bad.
As for the window manager and desktop environment, yes, I think it is
part of Xubuntu and its associated utilities.
While poking at this again today I noticed that the Settings Manager >
Screensaver included the option to change the time before it comes on.
I set it to 300 minutes, and now I no longer have the problem.
I've got mine set to 30 minutes now. I think that will work for most of
the woodworking YouTube videos I'm watching.
Of course, this means that my screensaver doesn't come on for 300
minutes, which might be bad for the screen. But I wonder just how
useful screensavers are with modern LCD displays. I remember they first
appeared when color CRTs first became available. And I remember those
old CRTs getting burn-in after a few years. But I retired a
still-working LCD a year ago that was six years old, and it had no
problems. Do I really need to use a screensaver?
Using power management, it does mean the monitor drops to a lower power
usage for all those times I'm AFK.
