I am using Mandrake 9.1 and can't figure how to make changes to these settings.

Is this supported by the OS or should I use the functions in the BIOS setup instead?
 
Shame on me, the screen part was easy:

Configuration>KDE>PowerControl>DisplayPowerControl
Configuration>GNOME>Screensaver

I found the GUI screen saver (loading data) woke up the HDD that was previously put to sleep by the BIOS...
