Unfortunately, in recent 5.0 rolling releases it is no longer possible to turn off the screensaver with the x-server arguments in /etc/slim.conf. A while back I posted a comment on the subject but didn't receive any reply.
But of course it is still possible to get rid of the screensaver if you are using a full live or core installation (not gtk, justx or base):
1) create an "autostart" sub-directory in your user directory...
[c]mkdir -p /home/???/.config/autostart[/c]
2) create/edit file "xset-screensaver.desktop" in autostart...
[c]leafpad /home/???/.config/autostart/xset-screensaver.desktop[/c]
... so, it looks like this:
[c][Desktop Entry][/c]
[c]Type=Application[/c]
[c]Name=xset screensaver timeout[/c]
[c]Exec=xset dpms 0 0 0 s 0 0[/c]
3) save the file and restart the desktop or reboot your pc
and check if it still bombs out after 10 minutes.

Try add line to /etc/X11/xorg.conf or /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-ServerLayout.conf
Section "ServerFlags"
Option "Xinerama" "0"
Option "blank time" "0"
Option "standby time" "0"
Option "suspend time" "0"
Option "off time" "0"
Option "dpms" "false"
EndSection

/usr/bin/xset-screensaver.sh
menu: setting->Set screensaver timeout

thankies, it works with bellard's answer 
(but maybe on all eeepc it will do the same problem? no way to understand why?)
thank you anyway
