Problem XF86Config



I need to prevent a box from blanking out.

In redhat8 I could succesfully put this section in the end of /etc/X11/XF86Config


Section "Serverflags"
Option "BlankTime" "0" Option "StandbyTime" "0"
	Option      "SuspendTime"  "0"
	Option      "OffTime"      "0"
EndSection

The result of putting in this section is that the X server will not start

By googling I found that this syntax could also be used


Section "Serverflags"
Option "blank time" "0" Option "standby time" "0"
	Option      "suspend time"  "0"
	Option      "off time"      "0"
EndSection

Same result, no X

startx gives error message:
Option      "blank time"    "0"          server flags section keyword expected

I copied the serverflags section from redhat8's XF86Config, where it worked fine.
What does debian demand of syntax here?
