The next thing to deal with is light-locker because it seems to have the power to override above settings. I'm not sure how to deal with this. One possibility is to try uninstalling it. But in my OpenBox menu I am using dmtool to lock the screen and wonder if that would be affected. Also I'd prefer to edit rather than eliminate. I know there is a script https://github.com/Antergos/light-locke ... ettings.py which sets to DPMS values for Antergos. I wonder what can be done here for Debian.
There is a program called caffeine that I've used to good effect on Arch systems, but the Debian version in the repositories doesn't seem to work well at the moment. Maybe when it gets upgraded?

Any suggestions appreciated.
