Hi all,
after upgrading and installing Trixie on my three RPi (3B+, 4, 5) i have an issue with switching of the monitor.
In Ubuntu 24.04 (and also older versions) after certain time of inactivity the screen first went blank, and bit later switched of completely.
With my three Trixie raspberries monitor stays active all the time.
They are all "headless" (yes, having monitor attached isn't headless exactly) and all are at run_level 3, as no graphic is needed on them.
So, all the time attached monitors are showing the login prompt, and never switch of.
Either i used wrong search arguments or did something else not optimal, but i only found answers for systems running under graphic environment.
So, question is:
How to switch of attached monitor after some Idle, non regardless only login prompt is shown, or some local sessions are running.
Thanks you for reading to here.
Any hint appreciated.
