For the Xserver the default is to enable DPMS. You can disable it with

Option "DPMS" "off"

via xorg.conf in Section "Monitor". Disable it on a running Xsession with
"xset -dpms".

Please make sure that the option above is set in xorg.conf. Then start a plain
Xserver with

X :1 & sleep 3; xterm -display :1

and check with "xset q" if DPMS is disabled. I suspect your desktop is
configured to enable it again after the Xserver has been started.
