[Bug 39687] Default screen saver setting should be to conserve energy

[Otto Kekäläinen]

Public bug reported:

Affects: gnome-screensaver (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed


Description:
Currently, the default screen saver in Dapper is 'random'. A computer
running a screen saver is a terrible waste of energy.

I suggest the default behaviour for an unused screen is to blank off.
All modern screens support DPMS shut down, so it shouldn't be an issue
to implement.
