| roasted | hi friends | 01:42 |

| roasted | anybody having issues with their screen timing out after x-minutes? About 90% of the time what I set it to in either dconf (idle-delay) or in system settings, it doesn't respond and the screen just stays awake full time. | 01:42 |
| oerheks | systemsettings > power setting perhaps? | 01:49 |
| roasted | oerheks: been there | 01:58 |
| roasted | oerheks: says 1 minute. wait 1 minute. most of the time, nothing. | 01:59 |
| roasted | change it to 5 minutes, wait 5 minutes, most of the time - nothing. | 01:59 |
| roasted | every once in a while if I change it in dconf, suddenly it works once, but won't work again | 01:59 |
| roasted | my wife and I have identical laptops with 17.04 UG installed, and still I can't wrap my head around it .Her laptop works flawlessly. | 01:59 |
| jbicha | roasted: do you happen to have Unity or any other desktops installed? | 02:01 |
| roasted | jbicha: no | 02:12 |
| roasted | jbicha: when wife and I got brand new laptops, the unity news broke, so we decided to get in on a fresh install of the latest gnome and run with that until the LTS lands, so we're on 17.04 straight from an Ubuntu Gnome ISO. | 02:13 |
| jbicha | it sounds like you just need to switch laptops with her when she's not looking | 02:13 |
| jbicha | </badadvice> | 02:13 |
| roasted | ha, I could. :P | 02:14 |
| roasted | I'm just not seeing why when I make system settings>power changes and then check dconf, dconf yields exactly what I put in system settings -- but often doesn't honor it. | 02:14 |
| jbicha | are both or just one of you using GNOME on Wayland? | 02:15 |
| roasted | both are using Gnome, both are using X | 02:21 |
| jbicha | I don't know | 02:25 |
| roasted | I nuked .config/dconf/user but that made no difference. Might just have to nuke all .config .gnome etc stuff and see. | 02:25 |
| roasted | I'll create a 2nd user here and see how that does. Didn't try that yet. | 02:25 |
| roasted | oh my, I thought we were on to something there. | 02:35 |
| roasted | screen started dimming! I got all excited! and it went blank! and then immediately lit up as if I just hit a keystroke... and I didn't touch it at all... | 02:35 |
