Hi, thanks for your report. Which version did you use before?

It looks like I can reproduce this. I enable settings in the GUI and:

$ grep ^dpms ~/.xscreensaver
dpmsEnabled:    True
dpmsQuickOff:    False
dpmsStandby:    0:01:00
dpmsSuspend:    0:02:00
dpmsOff:    0:03:00

It stays the same after closing the settings. After opening the
settings GUI again, it stays "True" in the file until I switch to the
"Advanced" tab, where I find it disabled again.

$ grep ^dpms ~/.xscreensaver
dpmsEnabled:    False
dpmsQuickOff:    False
dpmsStandby:    0:01:00
dpmsSuspend:    0:02:00
dpmsOff:    0:03:00

It looks like opening the Advanced panel forces the "Power Management
Enabled" to off.

Best regards,
Tormod
