Deactivate Screensaver
Is there a way, to deactivate the Shell Screensaver (blank screen) in Debian 3.0? I use the bash.
Thanks

Hi,
I use SuSE 8.0
I also tried this with
setterm -blank 0
but this is only saved for the current session.
When i reboot the machine, the screensaver is enabled again.
is there a config-file, where i can disable the screensaver?
thanks in advance
tom
