I've done xset s off. KDE is set not to blank.

But on my Sony Vaio OBSD 5.8 in Xwindows with any manager after about 10 
minutes of inactivity
the screen blanks and won't come back, forcing me to kill the session 
(ctl-alt-bkspc).

Must be something in the card's VGA graphics mode? Any tips or tricks?

Last note in the archives I find about this was over a decade ago.

Yes, I know about NVIDIA vs. open source operating systems but this laptop was 
used, cheap, powerful
and has a large solid-state disk :) It runs OpenBSD just great otherwise on 7 
cores and thanks to
OpenBSD porter Daniel Dickman I've got NetBeans 8.1 running on it and am in 
heaven except for the
gosh-durned screen blanking when I turn my back!
