      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.

                      Simply type xscreensaver in your terminal and Enter. Click Settings and you choose your options here.
