Has anyone written a screenblanker that runs without a windowing
system active? Since X11R2 can blank the screen, it's obviously
possible, but I haven't been able to find any.
It would be sufficient that the screen was blanked only when nobody
was logged on (when people are logged on, they're generally running
X11 which already can blank screens), although it would be nicer if
the screenblanker could work all the time.
Thanks in advance; I will post a summary if interest warrants.
