Kyle,
Try setterm -blank
From the Man page for setterm, under options:
"-blank [0-60] (virtual consoles only)
Sets the interval of inactivity, in minutes, after
which the screen will be automatically blanked
(using APM if available). Without an argument,
defaults to 0 (disable console blanking)."
Regards,
Tom
