Suggestion 1: ->from the console<-, run setterm --powersave off That way, even if you connect a monitor (in our, uh, "computer labs", we have a monitor-on-a-stick), you'll still see what's on the screen at the end, not the power save blanking.
I get a message "cannot (un)set powersave mode".
I'll add this to .xinitrc.
Or better, CTRL-ALT-F1 to switch to serial console and run "setterm -powersave off".
