So i wanted to enable screen blanking (you know screen turning off, screensavers etc) but it doesnt work.
Screen blanking simply never kicks in.

The function is: love.window.setDisplaySleepEnabled( true )
Can someone try and confirm this is not just me?
Running linux/Xorg in case this is an OS problem.

For me, under Wayland and GNOME, this option works, screen go/don't go sleep according to option, so it's probably something in your de or wm side. I'll try to check if same happens on xrog or not
