Title:
  uses gnome-power-manager defaults as-is, which puts  the host to sleep
  after 30 minutes

Status in “gdm” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Since version 3.x, on a fresh install, GDM uses the gnome-power-
  manager defaults as-is  for its greeter session. This has the
  unfortunate consequence of putting the host to sleep after 30 minutes,
  which is not desirable in a situation when the same host is meant to
  provide network services. This is even less acceptable considering how
  the new dconf-based GNOME configuration system makes it extremely
  tedious for the user to fix this manually later on e.g. 'gksu -u gdm
  gnome-control-center' won't work, because dconf tools expect a direct
  access to the display and yet the new GNOME3 environment no longer has
  any proper tool to configure GDM sessions the same way that GDM2 did.
