I believe there is also a problem with the Screensaver Preference Panel.
-- screen turns off after 5 minutes --

On the Screensaver Preferences.. 'Activate screensaver when computer is idle' Button when switched OFF, does not seem to work.. so beneath, where it states: Regard the computer as idle after: 5 minutes -- is still set for 5 minutes.

xset q | grep -A 2 "Screen Saver:"
timeout: 300

I have set my idle to 600 --10Hours

even then my timeout returns 28800 for some reason..(maybe there is a limit)

This problem is getting mixed up with power manager issues.
