You can set screen blank times for XFCE in 'Settings'->'Power Manager', 'Display tab. or run xfce4-power-manager-settings. There you can set times, or just tell it not to blank or power-down at all. It is possible that you _also_ have something like xscreensaver installed, whcih may be trying to manage the screen too. You can just uninstall that. > And nothing related to ssh works until xfce is up and running. The openssh dameon is independent of the desktop and will start first. If you don't start the desktop ssh should still work. Wookey -- Principal hats: Linaro, Debian, Wookware, ARM http://wookware.org/
