** Description changed: On a remote machine, no keyboard or mouse connected. Set up to auto login and start a browser in kiosk mode as a monitoring dash board for our office. The only way to enable this to run for the whole day is to connect a keyboard and break out of the screen save when it first runs. After that it will not go into the screen saver for the rest of the day. - all settings > brightness & lock > - Turn screen off when inactive for: "never" + all settings > brightness & lock > + Turn screen off when inactive for: "never" - lock : "off" + lock : "off" all settings > power > - suspend when inactive for : "don't suspend " + suspend when inactive for : "don't suspend " I have tried using different values for like 1 hour - all settings > brightness & lock > - Turn screen off when inactive for: "1 hour" + all settings > brightness & lock > + Turn screen off when inactive for: "1 hour" After 10 minutes monitor goes blank, as if "Turn screen off when inactive: 10 min" is set. - I have tried + I have tried xset -dpms xset s off current xset after clean boot xset -q 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: 500 repeat rate: 33 - auto repeating keys: 00ffffffdffffbbf - fadfffefffedffff - 9fffffffffffffff - fff7ffffffffffff - bell percent: 50 bell pitch: 400 bell duration: 100 + 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: 500 repeat rate: 33 + auto repeating keys: 00ffffffdffffbbf + fadfffefffedffff + 9fffffffffffffff + fff7ffffffffffff + bell percent: 50 bell pitch: 400 bell duration: 100 Pointer Control: - acceleration: 7/2 threshold: 1 + acceleration: 7/2 threshold: 1 Screen Saver: - prefer blanking: yes allow exposures: yes - timeout: 0 cycle: 0 + prefer blanking: yes allow exposures: yes + timeout: 0 cycle: 0 Colors: - default colormap: 0x20 BlackPixel: 0 WhitePixel: 16777215 + default colormap: 0x20 BlackPixel: 0 WhitePixel: 16777215 Font Path: - /usr/share/fonts/X11/misc,/usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpi/:unscaled,/usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi/:unscaled,/usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1,/usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpi,/usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi,built-ins + /usr/share/fonts/X11/misc,/usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpi/:unscaled,/usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi/:unscaled,/usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1,/usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpi,/usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi,built-ins DPMS (Energy Star): - Standby: 0 Suspend: 0 Off: 0 - DPMS is Disabled + Standby: 0 Suspend: 0 Off: 0 + DPMS is Disabled - - I end up issue the following command remotely to get the monitor back on. + I end up issue the following command remotely to get the monitor back on.
