No, I meant the setting in the screensaver itself. It separates into three timers under 'Display Power Management': Standby after xxx minutes Suspend after xxx minutes Off after xxx minutes But, I see now that it is Xscreensaver, and in Gnome you will be using Wayland. Also, it doesn't meet your requirement that it happen only when the display is being used. So, it wouldn't meet your needs, and, as Rex said, you need to somehow gain that ability for your application. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
