Now for a stupid-sounding question... what is the screensaver called? A "ps -ef" doesn't show any process with "screen" in the name. Man x and man xorg don't help. I'm running blackbox, so I don't have a gazillion settings widgets (nothing helpful in man blackbox). How can I find what program is blanking the screen? Once I do that, I can either set parameters or disable it. -- Walter Dnes
