Having trouble with screen on and off? Here are some tips that could help

@captsi HDMI-A-2 is probably because you plugged into 2. Glad it helped you though.

I had to use wayland-0 and HDMI-A-2

wayland is the software screen interface,
HDMI- is the hardware screen interface

Works great, but when the monitor switches back on, chromium does not start maximized and shows the infobar, both of which are managed in the [autostart] section of wayfire.ini. Is there a way to get the MM display back just as when the Pi launches fresh?

@langejos switch back to x11 in raspi-config

For me I needed to use wayland-0 on a RPI5 using the ribbon-display cable.
From the wlr-randr i got this

DSI-1 “(null) (null) (DSI-1)”
Physical size: 154x86 mm
Enabled: yes
Modes:
800x480 px, 60.028999 Hz (preferred, current)
Position: 368,332
Transform: 90
Scale: 1.000000

So I used DSI-1 instead of HDMI.
Also I removed the --mode information since i got something like “Mode 800x480 not recognized”, but apparently my display defaults to that.

@mumblebaj Course, I just switched back to X11 for now. 🙃

@langejos I am assuming you ran wlr-randr prior to creating the scripts to obtain your mirrors current display settings and then using that as input in the mon.sh?
