I have tried using the power settings GUI but I don't think the system is even paying attention to my settings. Can I do this via the CML and how? I hope this gets fixed in 19.10. FYI I tried the search engine but it failed me.

What does xset q say in a konsole?
My 19.04 says (trimmed)
In system settings, screen energy saving is set to 30 min, but I suspect the 600, presumably 10 minutes, applies; I'll have to check it out when I can leave the computer for a while.Code:Screen Saver: prefer blanking: yes allow exposures: yes timeout: 0 cycle: 600 ... DPMS (Energy Star): Standby: 0 Suspend: 0 Off: 0 DPMS is Disabled
There may be firmware (aka BIOS or start up) settings, perhaps called ACPI that are relevant on your hardware.Regards, John Little -

It seems to be working now so maybe something got messed up and when I rebooted to check the firmware it must have gotten fixed. I use muon to update rather than Discover since Discover keeps getting bugged. Maybe they fixed that since the last time I checked but usually discover gets bugged every few months. Unfortunatly it's always a guessing game after an update via muon as I never know for sure when a reboot is needed or if it's just nonsystem updates, so sometimes things get messed up until I relize or guess that a reboot is needed.Just to remind users and devs that Ubuntu and its flavors have a long way to go to be as usr friendly as they should be.
