Disable screen saver / blanking / lock in Debian Bookworm XFCE?

Hey,

Specifically for the Debian bookworm install of XFCE (which uses lightdm):

1) How do I permanently disable all screensaver, screen blanking, and screen lock after timeout?

2) Bonus points if you can point to the configuration files that control it so I might do this from a script.

I was able to get lightdm to auto-login my default user at startup by putting a conf file named 99\_autologin.conf in /usr/share/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/ with this in it:

`# Override of default settings found in /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf`

​

`[Seat:*]`

`autologin-user=myuser`

`autologin-user-timeout=0`

`greeter-allow-guest=false`

`allow-user-switching=false`

`allow-guest=false`

​

Something similar for the screensaver would be awesome, but anything that works is a start.

Thanks!
