When the computer is idle, the screen blanks automatically after ten minutes. It seems to be a screensaver because it returns to the normal state when I move the mouse or press a key.
As suggested on launchpad, the following command temporarily fixes the problem until the next reboot:
xset s 0 0
Please refer to the launchpad link above for more details.

Sorry, this is my first bug report. Please feel free to change the component and other details. I wasn't sure what I should enter because I don't understand the options offered.
