I just rebuilt my Knoppmyth box and now the screensaver comes on after about 15 seconds of inactivity. I can't get anything done.

How do I disable it? or change the time?

You can also exit the frontend, then via a shell, type the following which brings up the full set of options:

Code:
$ xscreensaver-demo

Thanks...even if I have the duration set to 120 minutes, it still comes on about every 15 seconds. The only way I could get it to stop was to disable it.

Something is wrong then... wish I could tell you what, but I've never had a problem with it doing that before. Can you provide us w/ more details?

Does it come on during playback of captured shows? During video watching (i.e. via mplayer)? When idle?
