should do it. I don't know what kernel param that sets, but according to the man page -- that is what the option is for.
# setterm --blank 10 # setterm --powerdown 12
is working fine with 4.16.10 Aha. I tried it with both arguments on one line, and that didn't work for me. Does your monitor actually suspend or power down?
Yes, both blanking and powerdown are working (this is Arch), I'll have to load my 15 drive (I have W10 and 42.3 loaded right now) I have 15 as a VM too running on a Arch server that I access via rdesktop, but I'm a bit unsure whether the vt interface on a vm would be testable in the same way. Logically if /sys/module/kernel/parameters/consoleblank is still set, it should show the same behavior, but with 15 autostart of X (on that vm), I doubt I could tell whether DPMS or setterm was in play. -- David C.
