- when deactivated means: Normal - Screen saver & blank screen (actually it is power saving feature)

Sooooo....Yes, I want No Blank screen?
No I want No Blank screen means I get the blank screens?

Why is this necessary? I don't have a screensaver/blanking screen during video playback but it will blank when video is not playing.

I know there was an error in the gxine startup script (gxineshell) back in the Puppy 2.1x days where it would turn the screensaver off but not back on again, however, surely that has been fixed by now. If you use Smplayer/mplayer for videos then it has the option built in.

well., you maybe only watch videos with gxine or mplayer, some of us also watch youtube and other live streams like watch-movies.net , also I don't want the computer going blank when downloading big files for hours..
