apparently there are some hardcoded defaults in the X server that need to be overridden to remove the 10 minute blanktime. just add the serverflags section in your config file as explained here: http://xorg.freedesktop.org/X11R6.8.0/doc/xorg.conf.5.html and it should be fine. the one affecting you is probably this: Option "BlankTime" "time" sets the inactivity timeout for the blanking phase of the screensaver. time is in minutes. This is equivalent to the Xorg server's `-s' flag, and the value can be changed at run-time with xset(1x) . Default: 10 minutes. you might also want to get rid of all those others options "StandbyTime", "SuspendTime" and "OffTime" just to be on the safe side. HTH, g.
