Well, you could do this
setterm -blank 1
and wait 1 minute to see if it does blank. Then run
setterm -blank 0
and wait another minute to see if it doesn't blank. Send me the 8
minutes you saved and we'll call it a deal :)
It won't survive a reboot. As to where to put it, let me think about
that one for a moment.
