ive had tinyme installed since last winter on a test hd. my problem is it keeps hibernating my momitor every 10 minutes, annoying while watching a dvd movie!!! what can i do to stop the monitor from hibernating, permanetly? thanks, O
hi GlobalForce, i think i have to put a code in term to bring up my xorg.conf. if so what code do i need to use? i think i know what code tags are. sorry but now im in uncharted territory for myself with tinyme;-(. O
Go inside your /etc/X11 directory and open the file with a text editor. Then merely copy'n paste - my quote for tag usage. Code: Section "ServerFlags" Option "StandbyTime" "0" Option "SuspendTime" "0" Option "OffTime" "4" EndSection ======================== As suspected, there's more to it. I'm pretty sure hibernation's controlled via hal, dbus and a few other items. Check this thread and run a search before asking in the appropriate hw section - the right place to post.
hi GlobalForce, i went to /etc/X11 and searched for xorg.config. opened every folder and file but couldnt find it. i ran Search Monkey to find the file and i get: "no such directory" sorry but im stuck;-(. O
Observence, I would absolutely take my second bit of advice and ask for assistance over on their forums. They know TinyMe.
hi GlobalForce and Ocky, i agree with GlobalForce and ill post there soon. its getting near tax time for the co so it will be abit;-(. i did find xorg.config;-). i guess ive got too many irons in the fire at this moment and missed that file completely. should i post a link back to this thread at pclinuxos? thanks for the help, O
Linking shouldn't be necessary Observence. That nothing was accomplished just tell'm you were directed to the friendly folks there.
i tried registering at pclinuxos but after clicking on the link they sent me i got nowhere so yesterday i started googling using DPMS as part of the search and found this: first, make sure the screensaver is turned off (unchecked) then tap the F12 key (you can also use terminal) and type: xset s off -dpms that turns off the hibernate feature but every time you bootup/reboot you must type that in again which i dont mind;-). so as far as im concerend my problem with tinyme is solved;-D have a great day, O
