Good evening, Nigel.
Yes, that did the trick for FC5, thanks. One down and one to go. :-)
On F7 there is no Options DPMS line in xorg.conf, so nothing to comment out.
<NH>>>>>Commenting out that line in FC6 did not work, and neither in
Debian Lenny after some X updates. I use KDE, and have put a simple script
in ~/.kde/autostart on Debian Lenny. This runs xset -dpms, which disables
DPMS when you login, see below.<<<<<
Do I just put a script in there and name it anything I want, or do I need
to give it a specific name?
I put one in there for F7 called noblank, made it executable by everybody,
so I'll see what happens.
