Monitor no longer turning off
by busdriver12 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5AC25)
Greetings,
One thing I never got around to was understanding was how Cinnamon controls the monitor. Since I installed 19.2 last year, the monitor would turn itself off after approx 30 minutes (I've never timed it) of inactivity which suits me as I usually leave the pc on when I go to work. However, after updating the other day, I've noticed the monitor no longer turns itself off after x amount of inactivity.
I've looked through all the settings to see where this is controlled and cannot find where this is done. I have a feeling it may be in a config file somewhere which was changed by one of the recent updates.
