Title: How To stop screen from blanking in VSIDO
Post by: VastOne on March 16, 2014, 07:44:35 PM
We get this question a lot on the OFTC #vsido IRC channel... When I watch a movie, I always want this set

I have found this is the best way to disable it permanently

Edit ~/.fluxbox/startup and add this


xset -dpms &
xset s noblank &
xset s off &


Save and restart fluxbox and you are all set

Here is a good link regarding the settings (http://idratherhack.blogspot.com/2011/09/disable-screen-blanking-in-linux-how.html)

Once again VO thank you this has driven me crazy for a long time but was always too lazy to look up how to fix it.
