Disable screen power save, screen blanking, screensaver, screen saver, dpms
Unless I have a very specific reason to use a screensaver or screen power blanking then I disable this crap.
Edit /boot/cmdline.txt and add the following string to the beginning of the cmdline string (should all be on one line).
consoleblank=0 disable_splash=1 logo.nologo
Also remove any splash and quiet options.
You may also need to disable this crap from inside X11, too. These commands will disable it once for the current session. You need to find out where this stuff is configured to make this persistent across boots.
