From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

LightDM, Pop_OS and Monitor Timeout (lemm.ee)

I used GDM Settings and broke GDM, every normal fix doesn't work to restore GDMs first login screen back to normal (all colors are black except background and icon, trails when items move).

I switched to LightDM and its working perfectly EXCEPT my monitor doesn't sleep when LightDM lockscreen is up.

I'm newer to Linux so I don't know how the Monitor sleeping system works, or what the hierarchy is, or configuring it.

I know that Pop_OS and dconf editor can both edit the Monitor timeout time, but that doesn't seem to affect LightDM, any suggestions? (I'd rather work on this than GDM because I've spent hours on GDMs theme being busted)
