Hello.

I hope I understand what you say here on this message, I copy and paste the whole console:
dars@dars-pc
OS: Garuda Linux x86_64

Uptime: 3 hours, 11 mins
Packages: 1396 (pacman)
Shell: bash 5.1.12
Resolution: 1280x1024
DE: LXQt 1.0.0
WM: KWin
Theme: Ant-Dracula [GTK2/3]

If anyone can help me disable the 5-10 min screen blanking in the terminal or in DE I would appreciate it alot, it's very annoying when I play on retro arch any game every 5-10 minute the screen goes blank and i have disabled all of the settings in power management and where i could find anything on idle or idling or screen or monitor settings. Please help, even if I need to disable it in terminal that I will do so.

No, how do you test DE’s?

Post your terminal/konsole in- and output as text (no pictures) from:

inxi -Faz

Did you check the system settings, display configs or Garuda assistant / tweaks?

Go to 'lxqt settings' which is under 'preferences'..In lxqt settings go to power management settings..then select idle tab..in that idle tab you can change idle time action to nothing or turn off screen..suspend ...etc
