[Tfug] video scan disable

[erich]

Well,
        It is pretty much a non issue using a text screen, although it looks
as if DPMS is rather primitive, and is active there too.
        Thanks, I'll try some if the stuff in this article. I want all
my, (display), machines to do slide shows, and it is annoying when
the screen goes dark during a show.
