Prevent un-blanking due to input events

[Log in to get rid of this advertisement]
Hi,

I am working on OMAP3530 based platform. We are using Linux-2.6.22.

How can I prevent (un)blanking of the frame buffer (virtual terminal) due to input device events in Linux?


Thanks and Regards,

Ruchi Sirauthiya
