program which would let me disable this screen blanking. The screen
needs to be able to stay on even when the system is idle. How can I
disable this?
Check /etc/X11/xorg.conf for "DPMS"-Option in Monitor-Section. Make
use of options "BlankTime", "SuspendTime", "StandbyTime" and "OffTime"
to optimize this behavior.
Check Man-Pages for more detailed informations:
#> man xorg.conf

Im running a headless installed of fedora core 2 with no X interface
installed, yet my screen still blanks itself after 10 minutes. As far as
I can tell, this type of behaviour is disable in bios, and didnt occur
when I was running win2k server on the same machine.
You're experiencing a console screen blank. To disable it:
setterm -blank 0
