ok this means that after 600 sec the screensaver will be activated. The
pattern of choice is blank. "Allow exposure" means that Xserver should
retain the contents of the display in t memory. If the clients can
re-generate the display this can be turned off ( it will also release some
memory). Cycle 600 means that it would change the pattern every 10 minutes
( NA since the supplied pattern is blank )

  So if the same settings ( default ? ) are there in your hme m/c you
would get blanking after 10 mins. One way to brute force would be to keep
something like

 xset -s 0 

 This should disable the screen saver. But do check on the exact syntax
though.
