Blank Screen
 

I have disabled screensaver in Linux Mandriva 2007 Spring but what I find is if my machine remains idle for some time (I don´t exactly after how much time), the monitor screen turns blank.

How do I avoid the screen from turning blank when my machine remains idle?

Thanks,

Ron

thats all you should have to do
setterm -powersave off -blank 0

if that doesnt work, go here, and readup on setterm
