Hi,
is there a way to disable to console screensafer in OpenBSD?
Problem description: after about 60 seconds after booting, the console
screen blanks and my monitor turns off (disabling power management on my
monitor doesn't help). Sometimes, shortly after starting Xorg, my
monitor also turns off. During a fresh installation of CURRENT from a
default floppy, my monitor also turns off.
OpenBSD does not blank the console screen after booting without you
deliberately setting things to do so. This is clearly not OpenBSD at
work. Don't try to fix broken hardware configuration through OpenBSD,
fix the hardware.
You apparently have some strange "feature" in the BIOS of your hardware.
Turn it off. I've seen these features on at least Compaqs and Dells,
and heard of it on many others.
