I have OpenSuse 11.0 installed.
After a set time the monitor goes to standby and a key pressed or
movement of the mouse must be done to bring the monitor active. I do not
want this to happen. I have look in Yast2 for power settings and have
not found anyway to change this power saving setup. Yast2 does not have
a selection for power management. Does anyone know how to stop this from
happening? What needs to be changed to prevent this and where do you
change it?

If you are using Gnome it's Computer > Control Center > Power Management
in the System section. Change the display setting.

If you are using KDE. Sorry I can't help.
