In Dharma live i can't get the display to sleep. The screen blanks and then reappears.

I found this other thread (http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=82380) which suggests:

Code:

There is a workaround (thanks bobo1on1) by running XBMC with: "SDL_VIDEO_ALLOW_SCREENSAVER=1 xbmc"

How is best to achieve this using the live version? I don't actually run 'xbmc' as a command.

I've tried the following:

Code:

service xbmc-live stop
SDL_VIDEO_ALLOW_SCREENSAVER=1
export SDL_VIDEO_ALLOW_SCREENSAVER
service xbmc-live start

and it still won't sleep.

What am i doing wrong??

I was following the logs using 'tail -f .xbmc/temp/xbmc.log' and absolutely nothing is outputted.

Cheers.
