MX Linux 17.1 LiveCD problem


When using the LiveCD to watch TV shows and movies on the various Internet-TV freesites, my monitor turns black if I don't at least jiggle the mouse every five minutes. Very distracting. Anyone know how to stop this?

You have to adjust the screen saver or power settings if a laptop to blank screen 'never'.

Many thanks! I had been adjusting the 'power settings' to no avail, but then I'm on a desktop, so guess that's why. I'll try the 'screen saver'.
