System -> Preferences -> Screensaver

and take it from there.

Note: You might have 2 screensaver entries in the drop down menu.
On my F13, the first screensaver menu entry runs the
xscreensaver-demo
which I am unable to kill, even via sudo, even with signal 9.
I hope some fedoral developer sees this :)

So, select the second screensaver entry and that will bring up a
gui for you to set what to do when idle.
You can uncheck the box and it will not blank the screen.
