Description Jacques Le Normand 2006-04-22 16:27:14 UTC 
It is customary for the screen to blank after a period of inactivity under linux. However, since sdl turns off screensavers, I had assumed it would also turn blanking off; it doesn't.
I'm running debian unstable, and I have DPMS turned on in my xorg.conf
Comment 1 Sam Lantinga 2006-05-07 17:18:01 UTC 
I'd like to get this fixed for SDL 1.2.10 release, if possible.
Comment 2 Sam Lantinga 2006-05-08 02:38:45 UTC 
The screensaver and DPMS are disabled now, when an SDL application is running.
