        When editing this file:
        sudo nano /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf

        There are TWO versions of statement below something like “SeatDefaults”

        xserver-command=X -s 0 -dpms

        MAKE SURE YOU ARE BELOW THE SECOND mention of “SeatDefaults”

        I spent hours banging my head on this one.

          Easy… just install xscreensaver with
          sudo apt-get install xscreensaver
          then go to screensaver preferences and disable the screensaver, thats all.
