Comment 10 for bug 20469

the comment from Tormod Volden suggests it is solved, no ? gnome-screensaver currently has no option to set the timeout for dpms in the settings, you can try to set it with gconf-editor if the time seems to long (note that its added to the normal screensaver timeout (the dpms timer starts counting after the screen was blanked). imho this is fixed and should be turned into a whishlist bug for a settings option in g-s-s preferences
