I'm trying to hook into DPMS events so that I can run my own actions when DPMS enters on/standby/suspend/off modes (actually, for my purposes all I care about is "On" and "Not on"). I've been searching around and discovered that the XDPMS extension supposedly got some sort of event notification a couple years ago, but I don't see any evidence of that in X11/extensions/dpms*.h. In fact, dpmsproto.h seems to indicate that it's definitely not there:
#define DPMSNumberEvents 0 fwiw - my need for this to work around broken DPMS support in my TV which I'm driving via HDMI output. The DPMS signal doesn't actually power off the back light so I'd like to use the TV's RS-232 command interface to achieve that (which is already working nicely for startup/shutdown/suspend/wakeup events). I'm on an Ubuntu 11.10 box with the default xserver-xorg-core package (currently 2:1.10.4-1ubuntu4.2) Thanks for the help, Taylor _______________________________________________ xorg@lists.freedesktop.org: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: arch...@mail-archive.com
