 You know, I'm testing some application would crash the system, so I need

 I understand.  Did you try pressing the 'Alt' key, it wakes my console screen
 up alright.

Yep, this works. I think this is the normal Press any key to wake up
the monitor
mode, only defference is an 'Alt' key does not display any junk, it's
a clean waking.
Usually I use the 'down' key for this job.

[gentoo-user] How to disable the display power save mode

2008-08-21 Thread Zhou Rui
Hi,
After install the basic gentoo system, the monitor will turn to black
after a few munites,
but I'm running some program and I have to watch the output in console.
So how to keep my display always alive, I did some google but cannot
find answer (maybe
my keyword is not effactive)...

Thanks.

Is this in a GUI like KDE or Gnome?  Is it in a console?
