[Bug 869017] Re: Ubuntu server enables screenblanking, concealing crashdumps (DPMS is not used)

[James A. T. Rice]

Hi Fabio,

This isn't about xorg - this is about the text mode screen console that
the kernel provides.

It seems to be driven by drivers/tty/vt/vt.c , and adding consoleblank=0
kernel parameter disables the behaviour. I'd suggest making that the
default for the server edition.

Thanks
James
