Hello all,

Hopefully this is a quick one but it is driving me nuts and googling
doesn't shed any light.

I'm running Ubuntu 6.06LTS here with WindowMaker on the desktop.
Previoulsy I was running Gnome and disabled the screensaver and screen
blanking and that appeared to work. However since switching to
WindowMaker, the screen blanks every 10 minutes.

How do I disable it? I just want the screen to be on all the time.
I have disable apm and I've tried xset -dpms but it still happens.

Regards
Robert
