Greetings,

The plasma desktop has a setting for 'turning off' the screen, by which
it
means to stop driving it after a period of inactivity, so that it blanks
itself. I have this set to 8 minutes.

Is there a way to prompt this myself? I can't see a keyboard shortcut, or
perhaps I can't see for looking...


check xset command

"man xset"

Interesting - thanks; I hadn't used xset before.

I think I need a magic potion to specify which display is to be xset. I've
tried variations on 'xset dpms standyb', but I always get 'unable to open
display "" '.

DISPLAY=:whatever.WHATEVER xset bla bla bla
