Bug Description
In brightness & lock settings, I set the `Turn off off when inactive for` settings to 1 minute, but the screen remains on (an unlocked) for ever. The bug is introduced in Ubuntu 14.04 and was not present in 13.04/13.10.
I tried `xscreensaver` and it works fine.
Purging/
Before uninstall `gnome-screensaver` was being executed at startup, but after reinstall it does not starts automatically anymore. When I try to start it manullay, It prints `screensaver already running in this session` and stops. I can start it with `gksudo` but has no effect and screen remains on.
