# When using `intel-virtual-output`, the X-server for the second monitor
# uses its own screensaver settings for the built-in screensaver of X. If
# any application like e.g. a video player suppresses the screensaver, the
# external screen will still turn black after 10 minutes without any
# keyboard or mouse input. The following settings suppress this behaviour
# by completely disabling the built-in screensaver.

# Note that this does not affect the screensaver of your desktop
# environment, as they usually do their own screensaving. Also locking
# the workstation works just fine. However, power saving features will not
# work on the external monitor, it will never go to powersaving mode.

# This is a workaround for issue #93562 against `intel-virtual-output`:
# https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=93562
