Re: gentoo setterm -blank 0 -powerdown 0 -powersave off

yes, got the setterm part right.

If you really want the same song to play each time your computer boots, you can add it to local.start, but add it maybe as:
=====================================
mplayer /path/to/music.mp3 &>/dev/null &
=====================================
or else you may find your term unusable until the song ends.

However, with the same damn song being played each time you boot up, I bet it won't last a week in /etc/init.d/local.start. ;)
