found which always works every boot and keeps working after upgrades.

Hi,
I am using Debian wheezy and X11 on x86-64. I noticed that after five minutes
with no input or so, my screen is blacked. How can I disable this feature? I DO
have xset -dpms s off in my .xsession BTW., but this does not help.
Thanks a lot!

if you look at the beginning of the thread, you see that I especially do
not want any screen blanking.
Unfortunately it seems that it is not a screensaver issue, because I
killed any screensaver process running and the blanking still does
happen. Any idea who might be the culprit?

I tried "xset dpms force off" but that would blank the screen directly.

Does anybody have any idea on how to disable screen blanking in Lenny?
Hi,
have yo tried these settings in the xorg.conf?
Option "DPMS"
And in the ServerLayout section:
Option "BlankTime" "0"
Option "StandbyTime"
e Options DPMS line
in the xorg.conf file before I could stop the screen blanking in Etch.
I did enter that xset s off command as root though. I am not sure if that was
the right thing to do so I just tried it as the user logged into the console to
see if that would work. So far so good.
T
> xset s off does not seem to have worked either.
What do you use as your screensaver? If it's nothing, the above should
work (and does for me on Lenny). If it's xscreensaver,
gnome-screensaver or other, they already do what xset s off would
achieve and control blanking the screen themselves.

I believe what you want here is "xset s off". At least that's what I
do, and if I understand the manpage correctly, xset s (no)blank does not
affect the activation of the screensaver, only what it does when it
activates.
Cheers,

How do I turn off or customize the time out for the "screen saver" that
blanks the screen? I thought it might be part of the power management
features, but couldn't find any docs. Note: this is the blanking that
occurs both at the console and within X, it's not the screen saver.

Hello,
My computers are primarily servers (Debian/woody) which display diagnostic
information.
How do I turn off the automatic screen blanking features?
Thanks,

Hello:
I have KDE2 as the X display manager using an ATI rage128 card, but
cannot get the login screen to blank.
I've set xset to 10 minutes, but nothing happens at the end of the
interval.
Clearly I'm missing something, probably related to KDE and its login.
Ideas or suggestions are most welco

At the end of booting my new potato 2.2 installation (my first for debian),
the console screen goes blank and then reappears four times before finally
settling on the login prompt.
What's going on?
Thanks in advance,
Dwight
