You can check quite quickly whether DPMS is enabled or not by running:
xset -q
You can also disable it manually with the xset command.
Very useful tip! I note two different settings on mine:
=============================
Screen Saver:
prefer blanking: yes allow exposures: yes
timeout: 600 cycle: 600
=============================
and
=============================
DPMS (Energy Star):
Standby: 1200 Suspend: 600 Off: 2400
DPMS is Enabled
Monitor is On
=============================
Where is Screen Saver set? I don't have anything in my xorg.conf . . .
<OT> Also a bit of an OT question (apologies to the OP): my mouse is a
bit jerky when I move it quickly in a straight line. The above query
shows:
=============================
Pointer Control:
acceleration: 2/1 threshold: 4
=============================
Is this normal? How do I control its jerkiness? </OT>
