I /believe/ it only disables APM. Either that, or what it disables, KDE later enables due to the settings I have in it. In any case, it works the way I expect, that being I don't get the warning, but my monitors continue to go into power saving mode after the usual timeout, in X/KDE. Naturally, try it. If it works for you, use it. If it doesn't, don't. However, I can't see that specifically turning off something that the warning says is disabled anyway, thus avoiding that warning, will change anything except getting the warning. <g> > GOOGLE is a great tool!!! :-) > > Tip to disable "RenderAccel" in xorg.conf helps me! :-) Google is very cool for this sort of thing, indeed. =8^) -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
