Public bug reported:
as a result, X blanks the screen after 10 minutes regardless of what the
screensaver is told to do (ie "don't blank the screen").
$ ps ax |grep screensa
1478 ? Sl 0:00 mate-screensaver
$ xset q
[snip]
Screen Saver:
prefer blanking: yes allow exposures: yes
timeout: 600 cycle: 600
DPMS (Energy Star):
Standby: 600 Suspend: 600 Off: 600
DPMS is Enabled
Monitor is On
This worked correctly in 14.04 without needing the user to hack up a
.xessionrc file.
