Try adding:

/usr/local/bin/xset -dpms

in your users ~/.Xsession

If you've got a load of users. Then put it at the end of:

/usr/local/share/examples/xdm/Xsession

and put it somewhere else and point your xdm config at it.

HTH.

Re: "X" Screensaver

2008-04-16 Thread Fred Schnittke
Hi:

I've installed FreeBSD 7.0, just a standard install with "X". I load XDM
via /usr/local/etc/rc.d/x.sh, which states:

/usr/local/bin/xset s off
/usr/local/bin/xdm

But I can't get the screensaver to disable. After about 10 minutes of
sitting at the XDM Login Prompt, the screen goes blank.

Can anyone tell me definately, how to disable the "X" screen saver for
good, for all users?


Regards,
