The other thing- how the heck do you turn-off the damn screen saver? or rather stop the screen from blanking out after some (?)10 minutes or so? With the screen saver turned off the screen blanks - to GREAT annoyance to me - unless something is constantly displayed on the screen.
It's the X blank/standby/suspend/offtime options that do this. I don't know if there's an elegant SuSE way to take care of this, but I've turned it off using the following X options (in XF86Config):
You should also be able to turn this off in the KDE Control Center --> Power Control --> uncheck the box for Enable Display Power Control
Thanks, Kenneth, this did the trick. This feature is also in v9.0 but I didn't have to invoke it to stop the screensaver from working so what this means is that SuSE 9.1 has another bug in it. Cheers. -- I am not young enough to know everything.
