Here is my issue- I'm using a redhat 4.8 kernel command line only and it seem that after 15-20 minutes the monitor will shut off(I assume go into sleep mode) and I can't wake it up with the mouse or keyboard, I have to manually restart the machine.
Is there a way to turn off this via command line? or any ideas as to why this is happening?
I would have a look at /var/log/pm-suspend.log and see if you are getting any errors, this will aid in troubleshooting. I would also have a look at your dmesg output, along with /var/log/messages.
You just need to install it then. Install the xorg-x11-server-utils package in order to get the needed dependencies for xset. Quick question.... Did you pay for redhat? If so, you can use yum to install it:
Code:
yum install xorg-x11-server-utils
If you didn't pay for support, you will need to manually download the package. I also recommend that you upgrade your system to the newest version of red hat.
