MM current version on Raspberry Pi 5 cannot turn off monitor
-
@liminal1 note that rapios on pi4 and 5 use a new display manager called Wayland.
so all the commands for display MGMT have changed. see the commands posted above.
or set the os back to x11. see the raspi-config command

or set the os back to x11. see the raspi-config commandI did try those commands, they are not working for me. Maybe I need more context for that (which is essentially what I was asking for :) Or I switch back to a slower and less efficient display model that negates having a Pi 5. Is that a correct asumption?
Maybe I wasn’t clear, but Im just asking if anyone does have it working on the Pi 5 with Bookworm. What did you use and how did you do it?
Thank you :)

@liminal1 the posts above say it was working on bookworm.

@liminal1 doesn’t matter 4 or 5. As long as bookworm wayland, it’s working fine. For what’s worth, I’m on a 5.

If I create that script and run it, it brings up a logon page :(

@liminal1 that makes no sense.
you are running this from a terminal window, right
ctrl-alt-t on the desktop.
nothing login related there

Its a touch screen, what does this do?
nothing login related there
Not sure what you mean?
-
@liminal1 the terminal window has nothing to do with login.
your system should boot to the desktop
then open a terminal window
and type the commands aboveor use an ssh session from your pc
-
Yes,
So this is what is happening to me when I try the script or the command
