Still I get screensavers coming on. It's summer and too hot here (36 C+) so don't want them because they heat up my graphics card, (cheap Nvidia Geforce with no fan) and it locks up.
At worst, define a blank screensaver, or one that powers off the display, instead of displaying "nice" graphics: it should be better for your card and monitor. You may also enable "DPMS" in "/etc/X11/XF86Config"; also, check the options: BlankTime, StandbyTime, SuspendTime, and OffTime in ServerFlags.

Hi, Given all the things you tried, you probably thought of this, but have you considered: finding some way to cool room, adding another fan in box, drilling some holes in box, moving your ribbon cables, and/or relocating your graphics card to another slot ??? Hope this helps, HAND -- __________________________________________________________________ Introducing the New Netscape Internet Service.
