I mean that historically it's always been possible, and sometimes useful, to be able to turn the screen off immediately on the command line (xset dpms ...).
It's not a major requirement, but a rare one. I can't even remember what my use case was for it in the past. In the case of 'mirout', I only added power commands for testing. I don't think anyone will complain in a hurry if no command line exists for changing the power mode. As for Xmir turning the display off, that's just legacy code from before I adopted the project. I completely agree Xmir should not be changing power modes for Unity8. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity8 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1521403 Title: Unity8 crashes on suspend/standby with SIGSEGV in Screen::makeCurrent (./src/platforms/mirserver/screen.cpp:406) Status in Canonical System Image: In Progress Status in qtmir package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: The Ubuntu Error Tracker has been receiving reports about a problem regarding unity8.
