turn off LCD automatically when idle?
 
I want linux to turn off my monitor after 5 minutes of inactivity, then turn back on when I press a button or move my mouse (not suspend the whole computer, just shut off the monitor). Is there a way to accomplish this?



Specs:
Slackware 10.1
Kernel 2.6.11.7
x.org with gnome

Yes.. add in the Section "Monitor" of your xorg.conf file the following line:
Code:

        Option      "DPMS"
Then create a section called ServerFlags and make it look like (this times can be changed by xset command or xscreensaver):
Code:

Section "ServerFlags"
    # Option "BlankTime"  "0" # Feel free to un/comment this ones
    # Option "StandbyTime"  "5" # I just put them here so you know they exist ;)
    # Option "SuspendTime"  "7" # More info: man xorg.conf
    Option "OffTime"  "10"
EndSection

Thank you very much for your fast reply and a relevant answer. :cool:

marsques 04-16-2005 07:13 AM

how would i get the monitor to automatically turn off, say after 5 mins in console (no X)...

thanks...

You can find the setting in /etc/rc.d/rc.M

Code:

# Screen blanks after 15 minutes idle time, and powers down in one hour
# if the kernel supports APM or ACPI power management:
/bin/setterm -blank 15 -powersave powerdown -powerdown 60

I guess you know which one to edit from the comments.

marsques 04-16-2005 02:38 PM

so i would change -powerdown 60 to -powerdown 5?

carboncopy 04-16-2005 11:08 PM

Yes. In that case your -blank 15 would be useless. You can remove that.

But a note about monitors. I don't advise you to switch on and off every 5 minutes. It will shorten your monitor's life.

houler 04-19-2005 04:08 PM

So is this correct? I've waited like 20 minutes and monitor still won't turn off automatically...

Try forcing the monitor going off "by hand" to see if it supports it, to do it type:
Code:

xset dpms force off
from any terminal in X

Yeah that method works...Does my xorg.conf file look correct?

He said to put it under 'Monitor'? :confused:

I'll put it under devices...

Not saying he is incorrect just that mine works and is under Section "Device"

Also I beleive your:

# Option "BlankTime" "0" # Feel free to un/comment this ones
# Option "StandbyTime" "5" # I just put them here so you know they exist ;)
# Option "SuspendTime" "7" # More info: man xorg.conf

Somethings wrong again. My monitor will shut-off in about 20-30 seconds when I'm not using the mouse. Is the "Offtime" "20" in seconds or minutes (just to make sure)?

Also, the 'offtime' feature shuts-off when I'm watching a movie file. Does the 'offtime' feature only correspond with the mouse? because it seems only when I'm moving the mouse, the monitor won't shut-off.

Here's my modified xorg.conf

# To customise the XKB settings to suit your keyboard, modify the

# keyboard, you will probably want to use:
#    Option "XkbModel"    "pc105"
# If you have a US Microsoft Natural keyboard, you can use:
#    Option "XkbModel"    "microsoft"
#
# Then to change the language, change the Layout setting.
# For example, a german layout can be obtained with:
#    Option "XkbLayout"  "de"
# or:
#    Option "XkbLayout"  "de"
#    Option "XkbVariant"  "nodeadkeys"
#
# If you'd like to switch the positions of your capslock and
