Hello,
I have one installation of Gentoo that it's without graphical environment, command line interface only. I'm curious about any screen saver or something like that because when I'm not using system some time I get black screen and I have to hit any key to continue. And I would like to customize this behaviour.

Code:

Sorry, I do not understand english :D

Code:

nano -w /etc/local.d/local.start

paste this:
Code:

ebegin "Turn off screensaver and terminal bell"
 for a in `seq 1 7`; do setterm -blank 0 > /dev/tty$a ; done
eend $?

change mode:
Code:

chmod 744 /etc/local.d/local.start

next reboot will solve screen blanking,,, that is just another solution with openrc
