Hi, I need to run a set of (graphical) benchmarks with the screen disabled. The following command did not work: xset dpms force off
Because any keyboard/mouse input would re-enable the screen. The other option was the following: xrandr --output eDP-1 --off This turns off the screen for a second, then, causes the following segmentation fault: gnome-shell[25737]: segfault at 8 ip 00007f3d02ef9210 sp 00007ffeee4e1fd8 error 4 in libmutter-2.so.0.0.0[7f3d02e99000+156000] How can the problem be solved? Is there any other user/kernel level alternative?Regards. ======= P.S.: The question is also asked in the following addresses: https://superuser.com/q/1805444/1037926 https://unix.stackexchange.com/q/754782/348219
