Hello,
I'm hoping someone might have the answer to this problem.
I have a box for MythTV and sometimes for KDE desktop usage. I have created a file in /usr/share/xsessions for mythfrontend, so that I can go straight from KDM to mythfrontend without starting up KDE if I want. I have it working fine, except for one thing. When I'm in mythfrontend, after a few minutes without keyboard or other input, the TV screen goes black. I can hit a key to bring it up again, but then hitting a key usually performs some operation in mythfrontend. I'm wondering if there's something I can add to /usr/share/xsessions/mythfrontend.desktop to disable DPMS or whatever is causing the screen to go black, but ONLY for a mythfrontend session. Here's my /usr/share/xsessions/mythfrontend.desktop file, in case anyone's interested:
