Bug Description
This concerns xubuntu-desktop 2.240 in Ubuntu jammy. (Please redirect this bug to a more suitable package if appropriate.)
I am testing the Xubuntu 22.04 live desktop system, running from a daily-build ISO. I do not want the display to blank, nor switch off, when the system is idle.
After a normal "Try Xubuntu" startup, in the Settings Manager, I switched off
Screensaver -> Screensaver (tab) -> Enable Screensaver
Power Manager -> Display (tab) -> Display power management
However, the display still powers down after some idle time.

On an installed system, with both the aforementioned settings disabled (as well as Screensaver -> Lock Screen (tab) -> Enable Lock Screen), the display still blanks (black screen) but does not power down. "xset -q" run on the system via ssh shows "DPMS is Disabled".
