Monitor sleeps after 10 min. no matter what setting

Postby brute on Mon Feb 21, 2011 4:29 pm

This may just be a KDE bug not sure, but I thought I would bring it up to see if anyone else has this issue. Probably not a big deal but monitor goes to sleep after 10 minutes no matter what settings are in power devil. I can disable it all and it still sleeps after 10. I will check KDE forums also. And if anyone has found a work around...please post back.

I expect you checked the screen saver isn't enabled. The only successful way I found was to add the following to the end of /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Code: Select all
Section "ServerFlags"
   Option "BlankTime"   "0"
   Option "StandbyTime" "0"
   Option "SuspendTime" "0"
   Option "OffTime"     "0"
   Option "DontZap" "false"
EndSection

I'm not sure if it's OK to use an xorg.conf having only those entries...

Backup the original if it exists.
