This seems to have been fixed in unity-greeter, but not lightdm-gtk-
greeter. And in any case, how can the unity-greeter inactivity timeout
be tuned? gsettings under the lightdm account?

The issue there seems to be that the gnome-settings-daemon power plugin
relies on gnome-screensaver to turn off the screen, or the screensaver

@Ted, I am not convinced that you are re-assigning the blame correctly.
I have no 13.04 to compare, but I believe that if the kernel (setterm) blanking

feature. X blanking is controlled by the builtin "screensaver" feat
I've read through the portions of Xorg that are directly related to the
screensaver timeouts (dixSaveScreens() and friends) and it appears that
my suspicion is incorrect. I was unable to find any sort of built-in

Then I remembered that the kernel has a buil

My (completely unconfirmed) suspicion at this point is that the problem
lies in xorg-server. I'm guessing that xorg-server has a built-in

It appears that the power plugin is indeed running in both 13.04 and

Robert, my observations show that the problem is not that proper setting

Unity greeter doesn't do anything to control the power management. It
runs gnome-settings-daemon to do this. It seems likely the problem is

That's an interesting comment, maybe somebody could try with lightdm-
gtk-greeter to see if that happens there as well?

It turns out that in 13.04, display power-off (when lightdm is up) is
driven by the X screensaver timeouts. If I do this:
xset s 60 60
...in lightdm's display-setup-script, the screen powers off (in 13.04)
in one minute instead of the usual 10.
13.10 has the X screensaver timeouts set to 10 m
Thanks, Eugene. Your solution works for me as well.
To complete this workaround, I've added a script to handle turning off
the X dpms timeouts when the user logs in. Here are the three files
that I've created. First, the config file:
/etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/50-dpms.conf

Workaround works for me as well, but seems to trump the "Turn off screen

minutes and immediate lock, but with this enabled it will blank the
screen at the scripts timeout and will not lock.

If you define a "display-setu-script" in the lightdm configuration, like
this:

display-setup-script=/path/to/display-setup.sh
and put this command in the "display-setup.sh":
xset dpms 120 125 130
