Package: gdm3 Version: 3.30.2-3 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
I tried to disble ac timewout of GDM after boot by changing greeter.dconf-defaults accordingly to https://wiki.debian.org/GDM . Here follows what I did: * changed greeter.dconf-defaults by setting: + sleep-inactive-ac-timeout=0 + sleep-inactive-ac-type='nothing' * run dpkg-reconfigure gdm3 as root but nothing has changed: gdm still put the machine in suspend mode after boot if no one logs in for about half an hour. Moreover I tried to update dconf db by running the command # dconf update error: Errore nell'aprire la directory «/etc/dconf/db»: File o directory non esistente Usage: dconf update Update the system dconf databases In general it seems very hard/camplicated for a normal user to access to gdm settings and change them, since: * there is no simple UI to do so * it is not clear where options and data are stored (/etc files or in a dconf db)? Thanks in advance P.
