Re: [Gumstix-users] Removing sleep mode

[Doddridge, L. S C. N. C. M. <lan...@na...>]

Option 1 works just fine for me.  I put it at the end of the
/etc/init.d/banner file, like this:

echo -ne "\033[9;0]\033[14;0]" > $vtmaster


where vtmaster is defined in the banner script already.  I have the same
kit you do, and my screen never blanks.

Subject: [Gumstix-users] Removing sleep mode

Hello everyone,
 
I'm trying to find a method for 'removing' the sleep mode in the
gumstix, and avoiding the LCD screen to go black after ~10 minutes.
 
I tried these two options:

1.  echo -ne "\033[9;0]\033[14;0]" > /dev/tty0
2.  echo "0" > /sys/class/graphics/fb0/blank
 
Option 1 doesn't do anything, and option 2 recovers from the sleep mode,
but after a certain time the screen goes black again.
 
FYO I'm using a Verdex XL6P with a consoleLCD with a samsung display.
 
Is there a way to completely remove the sleep mode (or at least avoid
the LCD to go black)? Any hints are welcome.
 
Thanks in advance,
David.
