In your xorg.conf check the setting for: |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
Option "SuspendTime" "10" |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
under "ServerLayout". If you set it to 0 I think that it will not suspend |
| 25 |
anymore. Also you could set it with xset (look at the dpms settings) as said |
| 26 |
above. |
| 27 |
|

Pressing the Alt button should however get you out of it. |

If you are running xscreensaver then the PID could be found by greping for |
| 31 |
xscreensaver. |
