Screen goes blank

sherry
Dear All,

  my screen goes blank after fixed interval and cursor also blinks
how to stop this....

It will be great help If some one help me..

Jay
You mean the backlight turns off? I have worked around this bug in my new
kernel release. Please explain more precise what your problem is.

bob
this is part of the driver functionality

if you look at your console screen you will see that the it is turned off
ofter it has been inactive.

sherry
yes I mean screen goes blank (processor goes in power save mode) but I can
wake up by using usb keyboard.

but I want to avoid use of keyboard.

I tried to use system("setterm -cursor off") and  system("setterm -blank
0")

in my application still cursor blinks and screen goes blank after some
time.

sherry
please any one knows the solution let me know

Jay
Set the backlight trigger to "default-on".
E.g. echo default-on > /sys/class/leds/backlight/trigger

sherry
I tried the same one but after rebooting screen goes blank after few
minutes.


please if any one have solved the problem let me know.
