3717.0. "How to disable the screen saver completely?" by TAV02::ITAMAR_E () Tue Nov 27 1990 09:39

Hi,

Is there any way to stop the screen saver completely? I mean that the screen
saver will be disabled even there is no session currently opened on the
workstation.

Any help is welcome

Thanks,
 
     Itamar.

	> Under session manager's customize window menu, click on disable screen > saver. This doesn't affect the screen saver action between sessions (while the login window is up), which was the question in .0. There is a hard-coded 10 minute screen saver default interval in the server. I don't know if there is any easier way to override it than writing a program that runs immediately after the server restarts and calls XSetScreenSaver. -steve-
