[SOLVED] Black screen after 30 min of idle ?

Post by NotSo »

Hi, it's probably only a simple thing but, as the title says, the screen goes black after 30 minutes even with the screen saver on or off. and it wakes with mouse movement or key press.
I can't find a setting that would fix it, it's probably only ticking a box somewhere. 8)

See in the Power Manager.
Figure with example on Mint Xfce.
