Well, I fail to see in what it's problematic. The current situation (depending on the checkbox) is: - either you force DPMS settings and don't let anyone touch it - either you force DPMS settings and don't let anyone touch it I agree that, for users which need it, DPMS management by xscreensaver is ok (and nice), but I wonder in what “don't force any DPMS settings” is ”to disable an important feature of xscreensaver”. Maybe I didn't look at the code enough, but that's simply (or so to speak) a matter of not doing the DPMSSetTimeouts() call. (and again, one can imagine doing DPMSForceLevel() instead).
