[ydl-gen] sleep / standby -- addenda

[Derick Centeno]

In Gnome you'll find the Screensaver under the System Preferences menu. 
  Although you'll notice that there are no images or screensavers 
actually available you can set the time when the screen will go black.  
It goes black because the screensavers themselves are not placed where 
the interface expects them to be -- that's a different issue.  Within 
KDE look for the Control Panel and select Screensaver or you can enter 
within the search area Screensaver and select which screensaver you 
would prefer as well as within what time that screensaver is to be 
activated.

If you prefer Gnome to KDE, the fact that it goes black right now won't 
disturb you compared to what you can get out of it.

For details regarding the sleep command itself, do:

$ man sleep

or

$ info sleep

Best wishes....
