Dear all, I would like to kindly ask for your advice regarding an issue with mplayer. I have the Gnome power control enabled to blank the screen after 2 minutes. Previously, when playing films with mplayer the command $ mplayer dvd:// -alang en -stop-xscreensaver worked till the movie finished. In Fedora Core 5 and the new inclusion of gnome-screensaver, this also worked. However, with Core 6, mplayer plays the movie but dpms kicks in and blanks the screen. How can I tell dpms not to kick in and allow mplayer to play the complete movie without blanking the screen? I have tried to use $ xset -dpms and $ xset dpms off but Power Savings kicks in and monitor blanks after 2 minutes. I do not want to disable power savings on in Gnome Power Manager. I want to find a viable solution. Thank you for your time and advice. Regards, Antonio ____________________________________________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
