Make X11 and Console No Blank / No DPMS permanent?

#1 Post by spartrekus »

Hello,

I would like to find out a way to bring no blank , no dpms , no turn off of the console but also of X11

For x11, non permanent is xset s noblank, xset s -dpms....

But how to do this for the console + X11, but this permanently (forever)? Ideally a change in /etc/... is looked for.

If you have any ideas, please do not hesitate. thank you in advance

i can think of 4 (!) aspects to consider:

console:
systemd - /etc/systemd/logind.conf

gui:
1. xset: a) dpms, b) screensaver
2. various x-, gnome, mate- etc. screensavers
3. power management & lockscreen
