Hi guys, I've installed 14.04 and I have a similar problem. The screensaver
delay is fixed in 300 seconds (5 minutes).
I'm doing a sort or desktop lock-down and I've fixed various properties using
dconf and it's locks, but I had no luck with the screensaver delay.
The key is: /org/gnome/desktop/session/idle-delay and I can change the value
and lock it, from the gui and from a profile in /etc/dcon/...
In any case the session becomes idle in 300 seconds, , it seems to me that the
screen saver uses the default value defined in the file:
/usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/org.gnome.desktop.session.gschema.xml
The parameter definition is:
<key type="u" name="idle-delay">
<default>300</default>
<summary>Time before session is considered idle</summary>
<description>The number of seconds of inactivity before the session is
considered idle.</description>
</key>
As I understand, when the session become idle the screensaver starts, so
actually the delay is not a screensaver's property, it is a property of
the session.
Any ideas if this is correct? maybe it is a bug or am I watching the
wrong parameter?
