screen blanks and does not come back

Open mentaluproar opened this issue 6 years ago • 3 comments

even though I have disabled screen blanking, after a while it does it anyway. If I touch the screen immediately , it will wake back up and work fine. If I let it sit blank for a while, it does not come back. Ctrl+alt+F(number) does still bring me to a console, which works fine. The octoprintTFT task is still running. But I cannot get it to pop back up without a reboot.

omg just fixed the issue by following this https://askubuntu.com/questions/476036/xset-unable-to-open-display

then this https://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/752/how-do-i-prevent-the-screen-from-going-blank

what i did to solve this problem i tried this command xset s noblank but it keeps saying xsetroot: unable to open display ':0' this mean my display is at DISPLAY=:1 so i entered export DISPLAY=:1 then xset s off # don't activate screensaver xset -dpms # disable DPMS (Energy Star) features. xset s noblank # don't blank the video device
