[SOLVED] ... set the time until the screensaver takes over?
I don't mean the X screensaver, I mean, during installation, that screensaver.

I know you can use Alt, Ctrl or Shift to safely wake your monitor from sleep.

Re: [SOLVED] ... set the time until the screensaver takes over?
Thanks for the quick replies.
For some odd reason when I'm installing Arch, the packages come in at like ~10K/s until the screensaver kicks in then they jump to ~500K/s. So, with this information I should be able to install Arch must faster.
Marking this solved. Thanks again.
