I have always used Cinnamon but I got a old laptop that works much better with MATE and so far am enjoying it. The one thing I cannot figure out is how to set the timing of the lock screen coming on. I have found the settings in energy settings and have everything set to never but that has no effect on the appearance of the lock screen after just a few minutes of inactivity.
I cannot find the lock screen settings and need to change this behaviour or I am going to have to find another DE to use. I want this laptop to never lock no matter how long it has been inactive.
Help!?

Re: Dumb Lock Screen Question.
I am just a rookie but would ask this "dumb" question. Did you go to Screensaver and select the Settings which turn it off? I am assuming Mate is the same as Rosa Cinnamon.
Re: Dumb Lock Screen Question.
Yes, there are two places to check the lockscreen settings; 1) Power Manager 2) Screensaver.

Thank you!
I knew it was going to be something obvious I had forgotten about.
