For people on mythbuntu who encounter this with a mceusb remote, here's how i'm working around it:
1) Save this file to /home/user/fix_tv_state.sh and make it executable ============================== #!/bin/sh #Fix TV state when HDMI link is lost. #By Mario Limonciello <[email protected]> OUTPUT="HDMI-0" BAD_MODE="1280x720" GOOD_MODE="1920x1080" for MODE in $BAD_MODE $GOOD_MODE; do DISPLAY=:0 xrandr --output $OUTPUT --mode $MODE sleep 2 done ============================== 2) Create ~/.lirc/irexec and put these contents: ============================== begin remote = mceusb button = KEY_POWER prog = irexec repeat = 0 config = /home/user/fix_tv_state.sh end ============================== 3) Add to ~/.lircrc this line: include ~/.lirc/irexec 4) Restart machine, lightdm or log out/in Now power button on your mceusb remote will fix the HTPC video output state. ** Also affects: mythbuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: nvidia-graphics-drivers (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of UBUNTU - AL - BR, which is subscribed to Mythbuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1308105 Title: HDMI Handshake fails after TV powered off Status in Mythbuntu, Ubuntu derivative focused upon MythTV: New Status in “nvidia-graphics-drivers” package in Ubuntu: New Status in “nvidia-graphics-drivers-331” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I had an HTPC with Mythbuntu 12.04 installed and all included NVIDIA 185 driver package. Connected to the HTPC is an audio receiver and from the audio receiver a TV. I had no problems on NVIDIA 185. Since upgrading to 14.04 I have tried both the 304.117 driver as well as the 331.38 driver. Both have a new behavior that if the TV is power cycled it no longer detects a link. When this happens I can find in the xorg log that there is an accompanying log item: [ 39829.509] (II) NVIDIA(0): Setting mode "NULL" Upon recommendations from the internet i've captured the EDID, tried to hardcode the metamodes in the xorg conf, and regenerated the xorg conf using nvxconfig to no avail. The problem persists.
