This sounds more like the kernels built in screen save option. It can be disabled with 'setterm -powersave off -blank 0' I would write a patch for this, but in my opinion, I think its much better to destroy the users install over destroying the users monitor. Therefore I propose that this bug be marked as invalid, but I wont change it myself in case of overwhelming demand for the above mentioned patch for custom livecds.
