Hello...

How can I disable monitor turning off after ~10 minutes?

Your monitor actually turns off?
Or does it just go blank?

If it's just blanking, add this to $HOME/.xinitrc:
xset s off

EDIT: sorry, i had "b" in there...

It turns off, but it's a crappy monitor

I've ended up with

Code Sample

xset -dpms                      # Disable DPMS xset s off                      # Disable screen blanking

in .xinitrc, now if I only can make Xwin execute java faster...
