G'day Mythers,
On my reasonably new install, the screen is blanking every 10 minutes (maybe
15, 20, whatever) during video playback.
It's not xscreensaver kicking in, since it's a blank screen and not the
graphic-screensaver.
So far I have:
Removed gnome-screensaver (it wasn't installed)
# apt-get remove gnome-screensaver
Disabled gnome-screensaver activation
# gconftool-2 --type boolean -s
/apps/gnome-screensaver/idle_activation_enabled false
Turned off gnome power manager idle display sleep (don't know if it's installed)
# gconftool-2 --type boolean -s
/apps/gnome-power-manager/timeout/sleep_display_ac 0
Turned off X-windows DPMS, etc. in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Section "ServerFlags"
Option "BlankTime" "0"
Option "StandbyTime" "0"
Option "SuspendTime" "0"
Option "OffTime" "0"
EndSection
Section "Device"
...
Option "DPMS" "False"
EndSection
Added a script which is called on XFCE-startup to turn all this stuff off too:
#! /bin/sh
xset s noblank
xset s off
xset -dpms
But, alas, the problem persists.
Anything for next on the list ?
cheers guys,
