This is particularly troublesome with machines that auto-login</font></div> <br /> <div align="left" style="text-align:left;"><font face="Geneva" size="+0" color="#000000" style="font-family:Geneva;font-size:12pt;color:#000000;">I'm rolling out my new installation for the whole school (70+ terminals) and the only hurdle left (that I know of) is disabling screen locking. I'd also like to set screen blanking for some ridiculously high number like 3 hours. We're an elementary school with a lot of autologin machines and young kids...we also do online testing. I can't have screen locking kicking in all the time...it would really screw things up. It used to be easy to disable it, but in 12.04 (precise), I can't seem to get anything to stick....short of doing it in the GUI and that would be another nightmare. I need a command line/script way of disabling screen locking and setting the screen blanking very high...for ALL users. So far all the stuff I've found online doesn't stick. I've tried gconf-editor (which won't allow me to access the screen locking key)...I've tried dconf-editor...(which does, but doesn't seem to do anything for anyone other than root)....etc. I really need help (on my knees and begging) ;-)</font></div> <br /> <div align="left" style="text-align:left;"><font face="Geneva" size="+0" color="#000000" style="font-family:Geneva;font-size:12pt;color:#000000;">David Trask</font></div> <div align="left" style="text-align:left;"><font face="Geneva" size="+0" color="#000000" style="font-family:Geneva;font-size:12pt;color:#000000;">Technology Director/Teacher</font></div> <div align="left" style="text-align:left;"><font face="Geneva" size="+0" color="#000000" style="font-family:Geneva;font-size:12pt;color:#000000;">Vassalboro Community School</font></div> <div align="left" style="text-align:left;"><font face="Geneva" size="+0" color="#000000" style="font-family:Geneva;font-size:12pt;color:#000000;"><a href="mailto:dtrask@vcsvikings.org">dtrask@vcsvikings.org</a></font></div> <div align="left" style="text-align:left;"><font face="Geneva" size="+0" color="#000000" style="font-family:Geneva;font-size:12pt;color:#000000;">(207) 923-4305</font></div> <br/> </body> </html>
