aye they do suck :-) they take up pointless CPU time... Personally I just have mine go to powersave after 30 minutes of no use.... that way if its busy doing something I dont get any stupid screenblankers taking the CPU :-)

well most screensaver programs you can get for the amiga have a powersave mode, as do programs like MCP and the like. Personally I use a program called YAK, avaliable from aminet... I use YAK because it gives me a digitcal clock on the workbench title bar (and all other pub screens). I also use it to control my wizards, middle mouse button, as well as the click to front function that a commodity does... All in all i find YAK to be a great little proggy and id be lost without it :-)

i used to use CGXBlanker, used to have it on random pattern... then I just had it doing DPMS... then I thought... why am i using another program to a job that a program i already run can... so I removed it all together and turned it on in YAK :-)
