X and Fluxbox :: how to switch off screen saver?



Quote
xset s 0 to switch it off (replace 0 by the number of ms you want to modify the deactivation time).

this command works fine !

Don't forget to add this command to your .xinitrc if you want to save it

i added it to .xinitrc, but it does not work. to check, if this is the right .xinitrc, i removed ( commented out with # ) the dillo-command and this works, but not the xset command.

Here (Live-CD+Backup feature), it does. Sorry, i have no idea where your pb is  :(

Where did you put the command?  If you added it to the end of the file it won't work. It needs to be above the window manager part (case $DESKTOP in...)
Way cool, I've been trying to disable the screen saver for a while. Just goes to show if try a search, you mifgt actually find the information you need. Duuuuuuuuuuh

Thanks Oldnewbie
