Ok, I think I've made some progress and figured out that it's somehow related to Caffeine. But now I've uninstalled Caffeine and it's still not working.
Previously, I had installed Caffeine to keep the screen awake while viewing non-fullscreen webpages, but it never worked. My computer would got to sleep no matter what, even if I was playing a fullscreen video, with or without Caffeine.
Yesterday I uninstalled Firefox, and I was prompted to uninstall a bunch of other packages at the same time. I removed them all. (I should have kept a log. Oops.)
I re-installed Firefox, and fullscreen videos worked great! Fullscreen videos would KEEP my screen on, as intended! I didn't even enable Caffeine!
Then, I turned on Caffeine so I could keep a non-fullscreen webpage open. It didn't work. The computer went to sleep.
Then, the next time I tried to watch a fullscreen video, the computer ALSO went to sleep. So I think that enabling Caffeine screwed something up.
So, I uninstalled Caffeine, uninstalled Firefox, re-installed Firefox, but now things are back to NOT working.
Not sure what else I can do. Any thoughts? Thank you
