Title:
  No option for stopping the monitor to become blank after ten minutes

Status in “gnome-power-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  DESCRIPTION
  *************

  By default, Ubuntu is configured to make the monitor become blank
  after ten minutes. No option is given in the control panel to stop
  this behaviour.

  STEPS TO REPRODUCE
  *********************

  1. Go to Control Panel \ Brightness and lock.

  2. Set the screen time to switch-off to never.

  3. Switch-off your mouse.

  4. Wait ten minutes.

  EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR
  **********************

  Nothing to happen.

  REAL BEHAVIOUR
  *****************

  The screen goes blank.

  WORKAROUND
  ***************

  Configure  Control Panel \ Brightness and lock to  switch-off the
  screen after ten minutes, so if it going to do so the screen
  brightness will become down gradually before and the user will be
  capable of manually stopping the screen from going to blank by moving
  the mouse.
