1 Hi folks:
2
3 I, like several others have been battling the problem of screens going
4 into power saver mode, and I have not been able to come to a resolution
5 to it yet. I followed the discussion of several weeks ago, and it did
6 not appear to make a difference. I have pasted in the relavant parts of
7 my xorg.conf. If someone could please help me out here -- this is
8 getting a bit frustrating -- the options I specified according to the
9 messages from a couple weeks ago in the section under the monitor (the
10 DPMS etc)
11
12 There was a question at the time of the discussion if the 0 was the
13 appropriate value to turn stuff off, but I never heard a resolution on
14 that either.
