This is a bit of a tricky problem; and hard to search for. I have a slave backend running the standard Fedora Core 3 install. It shares an LCD monitor with an XBox (D-Sub). The backend is hooked up via DVI. The LCD monitor is a BenQ monitor that auto-detects the signal and switches to the input to DVI or D-Sub depending on which one is sending a signal.
Frequently, I will turn on the backend end/DVI just so that its recorder is available while I play XBox. Thus, the screen is displaying the Fedora/X login screen. After a few minute, the screen saver kicks in, but it only blanks the screen and doesn't turn the monitor off. Now, I manually switch back to the XBox (D-Sub) and play for a little bit. But the when the XBox is reset (or switches video modes), it usually blanks the screen and then the LCD monitor reverts back to the DVI input. Unforunately, almost all of the time I want the LCD to stay on the D-Sub/XBox. How do I get Fedora Core 3's X login screen to send no signal to the monitor? It's gotta be one of the power saving features; but I tried setting the power manangement/screen saver properties for the 'root' Desktop account via the control center, but I don't think those are the settings that apply to the login screen.
