MagicMirror sleep in 5 minutes

Re: Power/Sleep Settings?

Hi!
I’m finishing my MagicMirror and have one problem. Raspberry is going to sleep after 10-15 minutes. Monitor is connected to electricity over moving sensor, so Monitor is after 12 min off power. When (moving sensor) turn on monitor, Raspberry is on idle so I have to move the mouse or keyboard to wake it.
Is any possibility to set MagisMirror to be on all the time?

Have you disabled the screensaver? May I suggest installing xscreensaver? In the options of xscreensaver you can disable the screensaver altogether. When your monitor comes on, MM will be visible.

@mykle1 I’ll try that today :)
Thanks

I’ve done it with xscreensaver. Perfect.
Thanks!!!
