I am using gnome-screensaver but I set everything off. Or, at least I unchecked "Activate screensaver when computer is idle" and set the Power Management settings to "Never." That is all I could see that you could turn off. But none of that ever worked. I had to comment out the Options DPMS line in the xorg.conf file before I could stop the screen blanking in Etch. I did enter that xset s off command as root though. I am not sure if that was the right thing to do so I just tried it as the user logged into the console to see if that would work. So far so good.
