Two Power Managers and changes don't take effect

Post by jolesh »

When I change my power management setting, the changes are shown in the UI and saved even after restart. BUT the don't have any effect my computer still locks the screen after a few minutes of inactivity. Which is quite annoying when rendering projects or watching movies.

For some reason I have two Power Managers:
1. "Power Management" - "Configure power management"
2. "Power Manager" - "Settings for the Xfce Power Manager"

Don't ask me what the Xfce Power Manager is doing there. I use MATE, so it shouldn't be there and that's probably what's causing the problem.

Please tell me, if you need any logs, software or hardware info.

Thanks in advance,
Jolesh
