"Setterm" and "xset s off" are neat, but they did not do the
trick for me.

Instead, I had to edit my /etc/X11/xorg.conf (was XF86Config-4).

   Section "Monitor"
      Identifier   "alans_monitor"
      HorizSync    30-64
      VertRefresh  50-130
      # Option       "DPMS"     <-- comment this out
   EndSection


Thanks for all of the suggestions!


Alan
