My power settings is off sleep. How do I fix this?
It happens when I stop using the keyboard and the mouse, even if I play a video it goes black screen.
Check you settings here:
Control Center -> Power Management
and
Control Center -> Screensaver
Alternatively you could install Caffeine from the Software Boutique

Okay thanks to both of you. I don't have to do any thing on the Caffeine right other than activating it?
Please show us screenshots of all your power management settings.
I would suggest this for general -
Okay thanks, I'll observe it now. I'll come back to tell what's the results with the Caffeine on and that new general settings.
Hi, the Caffeine works. But, how do I automatically activate it? It's already checked on the startup applications, but it doesn't work. I have to manually activate it every shutdown.
Use Applications, Accessories, Caffeine Indicator to get the on-off Caffeine indicator to show in the system tray at the upper right (if using the Traditional layout).
It is the measuring cup like icon to the right of the email icon. I have never used Caffeine and know nothing about it. You are on your own from here on out Qaet.
Yes, I know. But, my problem is how do I put the Caffeine Indicator in the startup applications? The only thing that shows is Caffeine I think I need the Caffeine Indicator, so I won't be activating it manually all the time.
Startup Apps, Add, Name: Caffeine, Command: caffeine-indicator. Every time you boot to desktop, click on the Caffeine Indicator icon in the system tray.
Why is this so hard?
