screen blanking

On all three machines where I have been installing the betas, the monitor blanks even if I tell it not to in kcontrol (Peripherals / Display and Desktop / Screensaver) and SAX (DPMS off). Is this a bug? How do I stop it happening? I can't help feel that it's worse for the monitor to blank and wake up every few minutes if I don't touch it than it is for it to stay on. -- ====================================================== Glenn Holmer (Linux registered user #16682) ====================================================== "Greater coherence cannot be achieved.
