That only covers the text consoles...not the X desktop.

actual screen saver settings?

Subject: Turn off screen saver
Hi,
my screen goes black after 10 min. (or 15min. - not sure) of inactivity.
How do I setup my box so the screen will never go black, or in safe mode
or anything like this?
What I did so far is:
- in ControlCenter/Peripherals/Display/PowerControl I uncheck the box
"Enable display power management".
- in /etc/X11/xorg.conf in the Monitor section I removed the line:
Option "dpms"
and still if I leave it for 10-15min. the screen still goes black and
wakes up when I move the mouse or press some key on the keyboard.
I need the screen to be up and running all the time.
OS: Red Hat EL 4 AS
Kernel: 2.6.9-34.0.1.EL
KDE: 3.3.1
Please let me know if you need more info.
Any suggestions?
Thank you for your help.
