Disabling monitor

  • Is there a command line command I can use to turn off the monitor or a setting to turn it off automatically?


    I'm running OMV on my netbook and would like to turn the display off to conserve power.


    Thanks

  • Solved it (makes it easy that OMV is running Debian)


    Install vbetool
    # apt-get install vbetool


    Turn monitor off:
    # vbetool dpms off


    Turn monitor on:
    #vbetool dpms on


    Note that once it's off you have to restore it with a command, not mouse or random keystrokes.
