Please be specific when asking for help such as the kernel version and version numbers of things you think might be related (in your case, the MATE version, Wayland or Xorg, etc.) "Latest updates" doesn't mean much when updates are released as often as they are. Your "latest" may not be the same as my "latest" unless we did it at exactly the same time and from the same mirrors. > Recently the mate-screensaver has failed to run > after the system has been idle for 5 minutes.

I'm an Xfce user, but check your desktop settings and verify that the screen saver and idle settings are what you think they are. There has been a number of issues with default settings being changed or not meaning the same thing with some recent packages (for example, mouse settings under vim). Also check the logs for messages relating to this for clues. > On 12/19/2016 03:10 AM, Patrick O'Callaghan wrote: >> On Mon, 2016-12-19 at 00:28 +0000, Matthew Saltzman wrote: >>> It happened a few weeks ago, so I don't recall what updates might be >>> involved, but my workstation used to suspend itself after some minutes >>> of inactivity.
