Hi, I have gentoo working okay on my iMac G5 (ppc64), but I cannot figure out how to change the default screen blanking timeout. After 10 minutes the screen goes blank, and if I hit any key it comes back. Can someone please tell me where I need to change this setting? Is it an option I need to pass to the framebuffer on boot? Note, btw, this is in a virtual console with no X running. If I run X, DPMS works correctly, but if I have any of the DPMS timeouts set to over 10 minutes, the screen still blanks after 10 minues, so I suspect there an overriding framebuffer timeout somewhere I need to change. (If I have the dpms settings lower than 10 minutes, it does blank and/or turn off as expected.) Thanks for your help, Chris -- [email protected] mailing list
