Gnome-screensaver settings












1















Does anyone know where I can locate gnome-screensaver settings on ubuntu 18 ? (I don't mean the GUI ones) I need it to be done through terminal. What I need to do is to tell gnome-screensaver to look for XAuthority file somewhere else rather than /home/user as our /home is nfs mounted and this causes a lot of issues for users. Can someone please point me in the right direction ?
