Hello,

I tried as suggested, no effect?  Further more I thought that xset settings didn't hold from one session to the other.  I used xset hundreds of times on this machine other machines and settings sure didn't hold from one session to the next?

Hi Gerald. xset s can also take the parameter on. I think you could probably do:

$ xset s on
$ xset +dpms

Hello,


until yesterday, when I was inactive for about 5-7 minutes the screen
would go in screen saving mode and lock (need password to unlock), the
behaviour I like.  Yesterday I watched a long documentary on Youtube,
the screen locked, to prevent it I ran:


$ xset s off

$ xset -dpms


everything was fine, no more locking; but now it doesn't lock at all
anymore (yes, I logged off and rebooted since yesterday) and I can't
find in the Xubuntu documentation how to revert to the original behaviour??


Xubuntu 20.04 LTS


Thanks for your support,


Gérald
