Running SuSE 11.1 w/ KDE 4. Screensaver keeps blanking out my screen on me and I can't find a setting to turn it off. A secondary issue is that it also eventually locks my screen on me if screen is blanked for awhile. Would like to make it stop doing that too! Hard to use it as a monitoring/display session if it keeps blanking out my screen!

Open Configure Desktop/Personal Settings. Go to Advanced > Power Management > Edit Profiles, and in the setting for the profile you are using (or all profiles) change the option for When the system is idle for more than XX min to Do nothing. In a default install it is set to Lock screen, and this overrides ANY timeout and password lock settings you have set for a screensaver in General > Desktop > Screensaver (particularly if you have unchecked Start automatically, or set the timeout to a period longer than the timeout in the Power Management settings). This answer was copied from user Clayton on the opensuse forum post titled Screen blanking/locking and 11.1. | |||
