Hi!
I have my kodi running on Ubuntu 16.04 with open box but since some months the screen goes black after some minutes of inactivity. I tried to turn off dpms but for some reason it doesn't work.
Here my xset q output:
Keyboard Control:
auto repeat: on key click percent: 0 LED mask: 00000000
XKB indicators:
00: Caps Lock: off 01: Num Lock: off 02: Scroll Lock: off
03: Compose: off 04: Kana: off 05: Sleep: off
06: Suspend: off 07: Mute: off 08: Misc: off
09: Mail: off 10: Charging: off 11: Shift Lock: off
12: Group 2: off 13: Mouse Keys: off
auto repeat delay: 660 repeat rate: 25
auto repeating keys: 00ffffffdffffbbf
fadfffefffedffff
9fffffffffffffff
fff7ffffffffffff
bell percent: 50 bell pitch: 400 bell duration: 100
Pointer Control:
acceleration: 2/1 threshold: 4
Screen Saver:
prefer blanking: yes allow exposures: yes
timeout: 0 cycle: 0
Colors:
default colormap: 0x20 BlackPixel: 0x0 WhitePixel: 0xffffff
Font Path:
/usr/share/fonts/X11/misc,/usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1,built-ins
DPMS (Energy Star):
Standby: 0 Suspend: 0 Off: 0
DPMS is Enabled
Monitor is On
I use the autostart file of openbox to set the dpms with different options but none of them worked :
echo "Prevent display from going to sleep" >> /tmp/xxxxxx
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.session idle-delay 0 >> /tmp/xxxxxx
# Prevent session from locking if the display does go to sleep
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.screensaver lock-enabled false >> /tmp/xxxxxx
echo "Disable screen saver" >> /tmp/xxxxxx
xset s off >> /tmp/xxxxxx
echo "Disable screen blanking" >> /tmp/xxxxxx
xset s noblank >> /tmp/xxxxxx
echo "xset 0 0" >> /tmp/xxxxxx
xset s 0 0 >> /tmp/xxxxxx
# Disable "Display Power Management Signaling"
xset -dpms >> /tmp/xxxxxx
xset dpms 0 0 0 >> /tmp/xxxxxx
xset s 0 s blank
xset q >> /tmp/xxxxxx
Any other ideas?
