We recommend searching for bugs this way, as you may discover that your bug has already been resolved and fixed in a later release.

Description Q4OS Team 2017-04-06 06:27:30 CDT
I found that after disabling DPMS power saving in "display" TCM module and setting the screensaver, the screensaver does not start. After reboot, only with ticking 'start automatically' off and on, the screensaver becomes active. When restarting the computer, the same issue arises again. If I enable DPMS power saving again, the screensaver will start to work correctly.

Exact steps to reproduce:
- Fresh TDE stable (14.0.4) installation on Debian Jessie.
- Run tdecmshell display
- Go to Power control tab -> uncheck "Enable display power management" checkbox
- Run "tdecmshell screensaver"
- Set "Start automatically", after 1 minute
- Reboot computer
- Wait a minute, screensaver will not start
