I assume you mean the monitor power?
then you have to set this in the Monitor section in your XF86config:
Option "DPMS"
and then you can use xset to set the timeout values:
xset dpms <standby> <suspend> <off>
or if you use xscreensaver then you can use that to change it,
Settings->Screensaver will launch the xscreensaver preferences panel.
