We had a chat about this in the office yesterday, and we haven't got a tested solution, but my colleagues suggest that it might be good to look at using the command xset -dpms in one of the startup files for X. On Thu, 18 May 2000, Edgehill E-Mail Service wrote:
Hi,
We have been trying to lose the screensaver from the SuSE graphical log-on. Currently, the screen blanks between users, and I hear the whingeing cry of "Siiiir, It duzznt wuuurk," or "Siiir, Suumun's switched it off..." by which time they've switched the system off - and we have to go through the disk check before logging on.
Unfortunately, neither I nor my assistant have been able to find how to disable this screensaver - or even how to change its behaviour.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks, Paul Ellison <SysAdm@edgecoll.clara.net>
