Hi. I'm running SuSE 8.1. After about 10 minutes the screen gets blank. Under KDE I'm using a sildshow as screensaver, that works fine, but finnaly the screen gets blank. The same happens on the consoles. Neither setterm -blank 0 or xset s off solves the problem. Any help? TIA, Ralf -- Ralf Haueisen ralf.haueisen@pi.uka.de df1iaz@darc.de http://www.qsl.net/df1iaz

Sounds like Power Control. KDE Control Center > Power Control > Display Power Control. Turn that off if you don't want the screen to shut down. (That's in 3.1. May be a different path to the settings in 3.0, but it's in the Center somewhere.) Joe -- One place, one space, one face, disgrace. http://Firechild.net

Check the power saving setting, seem to remember that defaults to a small amount of time. Tom On Mon, 17 Mar 2003, Ralf Haueisen wrote:
