Using the DPMS Screen Saver with CDE
When you are running Solaris 2.5.1 or later, CDE allows you to
enable a Display Power Management Signaling (DPMS) screen
saver. DPMS provides a standard way to manage the power used
by your display. DPMS shuts off the video signal to the display
when it is not in use, thereby extending the life of your display's
CRT or backlight and conserving energy.
You can enable DPMS through the Style Manager, just as you
would invoke any screen saver. You can also turn off DPMS to
prevent your screen from powering off during times when you
are using the display frequently.
To set the DPMS Screen Saver for your display
