Dont want display sleep (without gnome-power-manager help)

[sanvg]

Hi all,

Im using debian 5.0 without gnome-power-manager as i should not use it for my application.

The problem is , the display goes to sleep mode after some idle time(around 20 min).
I dont want that. plz help me to stop that sleep mode.
Whether it can be achieved by changes in BIOS or any script changes?

In BIOS settings i put 'video off in suspend' into NO.Even though it
disturb me as it is. Friends Help me!

I hava had something like this, but i set the screen saver to not sleep and kpowersafe to no sleep but i steel goes sleep on a long time.

Some times i settle the screensaver and after a time it goes sleep or go to black screen sleeping everithing i just want the screen saver do the job no the kpowersave or other daemon.

i am still playing with the values. I am shure there is another daemon doing that job i still have not found it!
