Hello, I have the same problem. If you are using KDE 4.4 you can use the following script to simulate user activity. IMHO it's a good workaround. ---- #!/bin/bash # start applications $* & # simulate user activity every 30s while applications running while jobs | grep -q Running do qdbus org.kde.krunner /ScreenSaver SimulateUserActivity sleep 30 done ---- save it as "simulateUserActivity.sh" call it: ./simulateUserActivity.sh kaffeine kind regards, Sebastian Am Samstag, 17.

Hi All,
I'm trying to disable the display power management, with absolutely no success at all. I'm running 11.3, but have had this problem in various earlier releases on various machines.
None of the settings in the power management module of System Settings seems to have any effect. I have tried setting the kernel boot parameters apm=off and acpi=off (which used to be necessary some years ago on some machines ...)
Basically, it's very annoying to have the screen blanking every 10 minutes, especially when streaming TV or watching a DVD. So, does anyone know where I might find the necessary setting(s) to disable the display power management entirely?
I'm running 11.3 x86_64 with a Radeon HD 4350 graphics card.
Thanks
Dylan
