screen blanking and kde

2006-07-03 Thread dick hoogendijk
The machine I use fvwm on blanks the screen after a period of time (the
default from Xorg). However, a machine running KDE does not(!), even
without the screensaver enabled (in kde). Disabling the saver results
in a screen never go blank. So, I guess, kde interfeares with xorg
somewhere (disabling the blanktime feature from xorg).

Does anybody know where this is done (by kde) and if this can be
changed? Sure, I can use kde's screensaver (orxscreensaver), but I only
want the screen go blank and xorg can do that just the same)

Just a me too...sorta.

My KDE session might blank out 3 or 4 times but after that it will just stay 
on. I noticed when using GNOME-2 the problem went away.

From settings-peripherals-display select the power control tab and 
you should be able to set blanking time there.
