Re: how avoid blank screen after some time

[Hans <hans.ullrich@loop.de>]

Does this not set dpms off permanently? This was the workaround, I already read 
of. I had the hope of a setting, when watching video, dpms will be 
automatically shut off.

Since when did debian activate DPMS? As this issue appeared after some 
upgrade, it must be added or activated somehow. Of course, if the issue is 
related to DPMS at all.

Best
