I think if you remove the dpms option from xorg.conf that it will

May be worth checking on. I would be wondering why it does that
though. There may be more to it than just dpms.

Oh, you may want to check xset too. I forgot about it.


Thanks Dale - I've removed DPMS and will try it out at the next reboot.



No need to reboot. Just log out of KDE and do a ctrl alt backspace.
That should do it for you.

Reboot? This is Linux. LOL
