Hi all,
I'm having an annoying problem and I wonder if someone can help me. I have a
box (slack 8.0) on which I need to disable screen saving. I have disabled
everything related to APM and power conserving in the bios. I don't have
screensaver running on X. Everything related to it in the kernel is disable.
But still, after a few minutes the screen goes blank.
Here is my XF86Config:
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Layout0"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
InputDevice "toque0" "CorePointer"
EndSection
Section "Files"

FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TT/"
EndSection
Section "Module"

Option "Type" "finger"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"

Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Card0"
Monitor "Monitor0"

EndSection
and my xinitrc:
#!/bin/sh
userresources=$HOME/.Xresources
usermodmap=$HOME/.Xmodmap
sysresources=/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/.Xresources
sysmodmap=/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/.Xmodmap
# merge in defaults and keymaps
if [ -f $sysresources ]; then
xrdb -merge $sysresources
fi
if [ -f $sysmodmap ]; then
xmodmap $sysmodmap
fi
if [ -f $userresources ]; then
xrdb -merge $userresources
fi
if [ -f $usermodmap ]; then
xmodmap $usermodmap
fi
# start some nice programs
twm -f /etc/twm.cfg &
xv -quit -root /etc/logosembarra.pcx &
xsetroot -cursor /etc/cursor.juke /etc/mask.juke &
/postgres_home/My_Vending_App ; /bin/setleds -L -caps
It's driving me NUTS!
any ideas?
TIA

Hi,
Look for the below message in 'rc.M'. Just comment it out.
# Screen blanks after 15 minutes idle time.
/bin/setterm -blank 15

Section "ServerFlags"
Option "BlankTime" "10"
Option "StandbyTime" "20"
Option "SuspendTime" "30"
Option "OffTime" "60"
EndSection
Although the XF86Config(5) man page doesn't actually say so, I believe
that setting them to "0" will disable blanking altogether.
BTW, the last three are only relevant if the monitor section has the
"DPMS" option.
