Since some times, look like X goes on sleep when unused…can I disable this ? !archlinux
about a year ago from xmpp-
@slubman In the preferences of kde/gmome, in the xorg.conf (BlankTime, StandbyTime, SuspendTime, OffTime) or, temporally with xset
-
@slubman could you be more specific? blank screen, screensaver, etc? will it wake back up if you move the mouse? is the time constant?
-
@naw I want my scren to go in standby mode, but not th server to "sleep"
-
@darwinsurvivor yes, when moving the mouse it wake up, but for exemple doing a remote xset will timeout because of the sleep
-
@phunehehe I leave X unused for several hours.
-
@slubman Are you using a desktop environment, or some kind of power management? I'd start with that.
-
@slubman do you have gnome-screensaver, xscreensaver, etc running? (ps aux | grep -i screen)
-
@darwinsurvivor I have the kde screensaver running
-
@slubman ah, so the entire system is going to sleep. ok, what power management software do you have? (gnome-power-manager, lmt, kde-?, etc)
-
@darwinsurvivor not the entire system, I can still ssh and do thing there. But everything depending on an X session is kind of unresponsive
-
@slubman how do you know they are unresponsive if they come back when you move the mouse...?
-
@darwinsurvivor take a look at !bitlbee + !weechat
-
@darwinsurvivor !irssi + !bitlbee here!
-
@darwinsurvivor using anything interacting with X (like ssh -X, xset -display :0 …) simply hang
-
@slubman did you set xhost? "xhost +LOCAL:". does "ssh -X, xset -display :0" work when it's not black?
-
@darwinsurvivor when screen is not black, yes everything works just fine
-
@slubman hmm, have you tried running a cpu intesive cli app (through ssh) and see if *that* hangs? it could be resource related hdd ..
-
@slubman .. spindown,etc
-
@darwinsurvivor try a cpu intensive cli app (over ssh). could be resource related (hd spindown, etc). just trying to eliminate other issues.

-
@darwinsurvivor starting other intensive tasks (multiple VMs, compilations) without problem.
-
@slubman Unless you've been doing some weird stuff in xorg.conf, I'm out of ideas. Try xorg channel on FreeNode. They are VERY helpful!
