In your xorg.conf check the setting for:=20 Option "SuspendTime" "10" under "ServerLayout". If you set it to 0 I think that it will not suspend= =20 anymore. Also you could set it with xset (look at the dpms settings) as sa= id=20 above. Pressing the Alt button should however get you out of it. If you are running xscreensaver then the PID could be found by greping for= =20 xscreensaver.
