[meta-freescale] Weston screensaver/power save disabling

[Heikki Sarkanen]

Hi Teemu,


Looking into the Weston sources is the best source of information most of the time. You may be looking for "idle-time" command line argument. Try for example:

"weston --tty=1 --use-gl=1 --device=/dev/fb0 --idle-time=0"


Idle time and screensaver functionalities are explained on the man-pages:

http://cgit.freedesktop.org/wayland/weston/tree/man/weston.man?h=1.5#n113

http://cgit.freedesktop.org/wayland/weston/tree/man/weston.ini.man?h=1.5#n255


I guess that in the future Wayland/Weston specific questions could be better answered on Wayland mailing-list: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/wayland-devel


BR,

Heikki Sarkanen

Subject: [meta-freescale] Weston screensaver/power save disabling

Hi,

I'm lost with all these mailinglists, but hope someone can help here.

I'm using imx6 devel-board (imx6q-sabresd) Yocto and Weston 1.5. I got the graphics showing and everything working that way just fine.

After getting graphics working I noticed rather annoying feature and that is screensaver. Or I'm not sure if it's screensaver or the power save option.

I have tried editing weston.ini - file. I know it's correct one because if I change panel color it'll change.

I've tried with empty [screensaver] - section, and then I pointed the screensaver to non-existing binary, tried setting duration to 0. Still, the screen goes black after a while. I tried googling, but didn't find any good way of disabling the power save option. Can it be done from weston.ini or does it need code/configuration changes or is that controlled somewhere else totally?
