The fact that it goes to sleep probably means that the Display has entered the energy saving mode according to the DPMS standard. If you run $ xset -q | grep -B 3 DPMS, you will see the following results; DPMS (Display Power Management Signaling): Standby: 310 Suspend: 311 Off: 312 DPMS is Enabled If DPMS is disabled, it will not enter energy saving mode. The command can be written in .bash_profile with; xset s off -dpms Best Regards. --- ┏━━┓彡 野宮 賢 mail-to: nomiya @ lake.dti.ne.jp ┃＼／彡 ┗━━┛ "The question of who holds the platform and whether the person or organisation holding it is trustworthy has serious and profound implications in these volatile times.
