Edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and add
Option "BlankTime" "0"
Option "SuspendTime" "0"
Option "OffTime" "0"to the "ServerFlags" section.
"0" disables the timeout, any other positive number sets the minutes untill action is taken.
So Option "BlankTime" "10" would blank the screen after 10 minutes etc.
P.S. Test if it works by setting BlankTime to "1" and don't touch anything for 1 minute. Go get a soda or something
