Comment 25 for bug 869017

To Robie Basak, specifically #22,

You said, "I don't see how we created another problem. We changed the default,
that's all."

You seem to have concluded that merely a change of default functionally was made at some point.

Perhaps that is the case. If so, what specifically was the default setting that was changed? For example, was it a kernel compilation time option? If so, can you please specify what setting can be changed back in order to re-enable Console blanking using DPMS (console display in power saving mode) for Ubuntu server 18.04?
