My FullscreenOS SetUp has an active Screensaver - how to disable?

What were you doing?

I setup a fresh new installation of FullPageOS via rasperry pi imager this week on my raspberry pi 4 with an attached HDMI touchscreen.

What did you expect to happen?

According to the FAQ of FullPageOS, there is no screensaver or switch off of the Screen after a specific amount of time; but my installation is going to idle after +- 5min. See attached video.
Whenever i touch the screen, the system is waked up again.

What happened instead?

Was there an error message displayed? What did it say?

No

Version of FullPageOS?

fullpageos 0.13.0

[Can be found in /etc/fullpageos_version ALWAYS INCLUDE.]

Screenshot(s) showing the problem:

I think important for this issue is the content of 'start_gui' file in scripts folder. I did not change this content, but for documentation reasons i pasted here the content.

`
#!/bin/bash

DISABLE_POWER_MANAGEMENT=yes

DISPLAY_ORIENTATION=normal

if ["${DISPLAY_ORIENTATION}" != 'normal'];
then
xrandr --orientation ${DISPLAY_ORIENTATION}
fi

if ["${DISABLE_POWER_MANAGEMENT}" == 'yes'];
then
xset s off # don't activate screensaver
xset -dpms # disable DPMS (Energy Star) features.
xset s noblank # don't blank the video device
fi

compton -b -d :0 --backend glx --unredir-if-possible --glx-swap-method buffer-age --glx-no-stencil --paint-on-overlay --vsync opengl
matchbox-window-manager &

/home/pi/scripts/run_onepageos

`

I would kindly ask for support to switch off the screensaver function.
Many thanks!

no one an idea?

A quick google search says it might be a powersave feature on the screen:
