MM current version on Raspberry Pi 5 cannot turn off monitor
-
@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?

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

@liminal1 are you doing this over VNC?
I have never seen this on the monitor attached to the pi

I just cant believe how trash this all is, not MM, but just the Pi 5 and wayland. And if you do switch back to X11 as a lot of people are suggesting. Everything else breaks.
I give up, I think its pretty rubbish Pi foundation selling something that’s still so undeveloped.
Anyway, thanks for trying :)
