We have some SuSE 10.2 boxes
we want the display up 7/24.

Deactivating the screen saver
does not help, nor does anything
we can find in yast.

xset s off
xset -dpms

Will do what we need,
but they do not survive reboot,
and they do confusing things when
we use x11vnc.

If possible we would like to
be able to set the box with
display ALWAYS up including
through reboot and use of x11vnc.
We would like the display
always on unless I became
root and deliberately
changed it. Is this possible?

Another problem is that xset
refuses to work from a remote
box by ssh, even if we have
added the remote box's name
or IP with xhost.

Because our seismic data does
not call for high security,
we do NOT have a firewall on
any box.
