Isn't that expected?

The last command turned it off, did you try turning it back on?

no

echo 0 turns it on

and to be clear:

echo 4  $P

is not enough to produce the problem
you have to call it twice

echo 4  $P; echo 4  $P

you can also try something like:
/*BINFMTC:
 */
#include stdio.h
#include assert.h
#include linux/fb.h
#include sys/types.h
#include sys/stat.h
#include fcntl.h
int main(int argc, char** argv) {
  int fd=open(/dev/fb0,O_RDWR);
  assert(fd!=-1);
  printf(%d\n,ioctl(fd, FBIOBLANK, FB_BLANK_POWERDOWN));
  printf(%d\n,ioctl(fd, FBIOBLANK, FB_BLANK_POWERDOWN));
  printf(%d\n,ioctl(fd, FBIOBLANK, FB_BLANK_UNBLANK));
  return 0;
}

greetings,
karme

I have exactly opposite problem. When I connect a display to A10 it
never turns off. It only shows either console or fully backlit blank
screen. I may have quite dated kernel, though.

Thanks

 sunxi-3.4 branch?

Linux A10 3.4.79+ #3 PREEMPT Mon Feb 17 21:33:07 CET 2014 armv7l GNU/Linux


 consoleblank=0 in /proc/cmdline ?

Why would I do that !?

netconsole=@10.11.12.13/usb0,@10.11.12.14/ debug

not that old

you shouldn't

it was just a wild guess on my side why switching off the display might
not work for you at all

sorry for the confusion
