Disabling Power Saving/APM in FC3

[Matt Roth]

List members,

How do I configure the power saving/APM options in FC3?  I've taken a 
look on the internet and the suggestions range from BIOS settings to 
kernel parameters to kernel builds with specific flags to setterm 
commands to X configurations.

Specifically, I am looking to completely disable all power saving 
features such as screen blanking and disk spin-down.  The machines will 
generally be in text mode, but X is used on them occasionally with KDE.

I would prefer to know how to do this at the command line or BIOS (if 
necessary) level, but if the configuration can be achieved through KDE 
that would suffice.

Thank you,
