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.

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...)
