Hello,
Before I start, I want to state that this system I am having a screensaver problem with originally ran 19.04 and was upgraded to 19.10. Also running latest everything at the time of writing this.
So, I have 2 instances of the screensaver entry under the MATE Menu. I understand that one of them was installed when deploying some screensaver*extra package.
The problem I have now is that even if both(yes, is stupid but I surely had to try it(And BOTH screensavers DID kicked in for a while too )) daemons are up that no screensaver kicks in and both of my screens will go immediately blank/energy saver.
Now I would also like to point out the fact that I am using dual 19:10 screens which are both rotated 90 degrees to the left (hence both in dual portrait (or both in reverse portrait, but it wouldn't matter at this point)).
Now, I clearly remember the screensaver working before. According to me, the 3 things that changed were:
#1: Constantly applied latest patches;
#2: Last time my screensaver worked was when I only had one widescreen monitor plugged in and NOT rotated. I did added a 2nd monitor (same SKU) however...
#3: So I went from 1x widescreen monitor running in regular horizontal position up to 2 widescreen monitors both running in "non-regular" vertical position.
I am pretty positive my issue is that I, again, did something that hadn't been intended by the Almighty Linux community hence I am once again into unknown territories here.
Do anybody use a dual head setup(2 monitors) with both monitors in a portrait position? If so, do you experience any of that weird stuff that I do?
I wish I would had kept my invoice for this warranty thing people just keep talking about but I did not hence me now injecting this into this great project.
<3
