But this all only works if I am actually working on this terminal!?

I do have a frame buffer console (VT) with no keyboard, but use the serial
console.

So I guess "setterm -blank 0" then works on my serial console but nit on the
framebuffer.

How am I supposed to switch off console blanking then?
In a bootscript?

Thanks!
