[TriLUG] Mandrake Laptop

[Jon Carnes]

On your tool bar, click on the 4th icon from the left (it looks like a 
monitor with green slime oozing down the left side of it...).  This is the 
"Control Center".  You'll find a lot of configure power contained within.

I believe there are two items you want to look at:
   Power Control / Energy - controls monitor Standby, Suspend, and Power off
   LookNFeel / Screensaver - controls when it kicks in and what SS it uses.

Have fun with the Screen Savers; there are some fun ones in there.
