Allo USBridge Signature

[bobfa]

I am running 6.3 on the USBridge Sig and noticed a problem with the HDMI display I have connected.  

1. When the screen times out I cannot find a "remote" way to turn it back on.  Tap a key on the connected keyboard works

2.  The picture on the screen goes away but the backlight stays on so the display is not going to sleep.

Hi Bob,

For the issue "backlight remaining on after screen blank" try adding the line below to /boot/config.txt then reboot.

Code:

hdmi_blanking=1

Try the following commands to turn the display back on after screen blanking.

Code:

export DISPLAY=:0
xset s reset

Let me know whether or not these work.

Tim,

I just got around to finishing my review of the Allo USBridge Sig for AudiophileStyle so I am getting back to my setup.  Both of these work fine.

I have an HDMI display and a mouse hooked up to the Allo and now when the display blanks I can click the mouse to wake it up all the way.

The question is when / how to restart the display from an control point.  

Thank you very much for all your help.  

Bob
