<pre wrap="">I've installed MythTv V-.20 on a Fedora Core 6 box, but cannot seem to
turn off the screen blanking feature. After a few minutes of idle
display, the screen goes blank. Using Jarod's guide, I have "xset
-dpms" included in the autostart script, but I don't think it's
working. Running it manually, I get this error message:
[mythtv@danson ~]$ xset -dpms
server does not have extension for -dpms option
[mythtv@danson ~]
...but the man page for xset has the option. Any clue on what I'm
missing? Thanks,
Don
PS - screen saver is turned off and the kde claims that my system does
not support power saving.

I always turn the feature on and set it to Never go to sleep.

I had the same thought, and tried:<br>
<br>
[mythtv@danson ~]$ xset +dpms<br>
server does not have extension for +dpms option<br>
[mythtv@danson ~]$<br>
<br>
...but I can't turn it on either. But it seems to be on by default.<br>
