why were the screen saver timeouts changed from minutes to seconds ?

[Sven <luther@dpt-info.u-strasbg.fr>]

Hello, ...

I just upgraded my box to the 4.1.0-9 packages, and noticed the screen saver
(using dpms) blank the screen quite fast.

I have this in /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 :

# Set the basic blanking screen saver timeout.

    Option      "blank time"    "10"    # 10 minutes

# Set the DPMS timeouts.  These are set here because they are global
# rather than screen-specific.  These settings alone don't enable DPMS.
# It is enabled per-screen (or per-monitor), and even then only when
# the driver supports it.

    Option      "standby time"  "20"
    Option      "suspend time"  "30"
    Option      "off time"      "60"

But apparently now X blanks after 10 seconds, not 10 minutes.

Do someone know if this is a wanted change or a bug, i didn't find any mention
of it in the changelog file from branden, but then maybe i missed it, or if
ithas something to do with the gnome screen saver stuff ?

Friendly,
