I don't know what causes it to get into this state - thus don't know how to fix
(and as i don't see it happen myself i can't poke it and see how it wobbles),
but... wouldnmt i just be far easier if this happens to do:
ctrl+alt+end (that just does enlightenment->restart).
e restarts and it should go back to normal (until it triggers again)?

Re: [e-users] E 0.25.3 locking resets dpms to Standby: 11 Suspend: 12 Off: 13
in my config, I can see some values close to the ones I may get after suspend, in Config>Screen>Blanking and Config>Screen>Backlight Those config are claimed to be ignored, because the values are assigned to fields that are disabled, but, maybe some glitch goes to read and use those values dispite the unticked box ... I should not have any interfeerence with other tools. 15y ago I used to mix E with some Gnome and KDE components; but today, my current conf is clean from this kind of mix. I do use DBus, but no funky component should be able to mess E via DBus. 2 years I have this funny glitch after suspend, and never could correlate it with anything in particular. Especially in my case, it does not occur frequently or reliably; it's "some times". The only thing that could be a lead, may be the fact I unplug the power of my laptop during the suspend to ram; that was the best lead I had: go sleep wired to live, unplug, and wakeup without PSU. That increased the probability to a good 30%. I am using Debian, and I probably have the package LaptopTools. Maybe some sysconf catches power-unplug and tries to overwrite X timeouts, and, for some reason, E does not catch them ... (race concurencies). Just thoughts. The glitch is very ennoying, but, the fix was easy. So even if this technically renders the system completely unusable ... I don't class it as critical, cause the fix is just trivial. So, WA it, and forget it. By over scripting / rewraping the sleep command, it could be possible to dump the system (list all process, check APM states) before sleep, just after, and track which process or event could correlate with a DPMS change. Linux is becoming a very complex system, and I don't have time anymore to track the root cause of every single issue. And it may not be E ... But if you do: - rewrap the sleep commands - check if the values after sleep match the E config that should be ignored - try to correlate with any event that could be catched by laptop-tools (sleep by keyboard shortcut to BIOS, sleep by LID, PSU disconnexion, temperatures ... ) On 03/10/2023 23:22, Marc MERLIN wrote: On Tue, Oct 03, 2023 at 08:55:26PM +0200, Benoît-Pierre Demaine wrote: As said earlier, I have a similar issue; my fix was this in .xinitrc .

Thanks. I can go into workarounds like this one indeed, but kind of was
hoping the root cause would be identified and fixed in E, or somehow a

As said earlier, I have a similar issue; my fix was this in .xinitrc .
Since that bit of code, I never had the issue again. Issue happens to me
when I resume from suspend to ram (not each time, one out of 10).

# Screen timeout and brightness
while true
do
val=$(xset q | grep timeout: | awk '{print $2}' )
[ $val -lt 30 ] && xset s 300

slow; 0.5 is medium

600 is medium
sleep 10

Thanks for having a look. On my side it's not happening reliably, so havne't pinned it down, although it's definitely linked to the screensaver having reset this by the time I unlock the screen.

I assume you referred to "special timeout when screen is locked"? If so, I tried to set it to 0, but locking and unlocking brought me back to Screen Saver: prefer blanking: yesallow exposures: yes timeout: 300cycle: 300 DPMS (Energy Star): Standby: 11Suspend: 12Off: 13 DPMS is Enabled Monitor is On So, no dice.

Hi Raster, I still have this issue daily. Any ideas?

If that helps, my settings -- "A mouse is a device used to point at the xterm you want to type in" - A.S.R.

I have a similar problem sometimes when I come out from suspend to RAM, my sleep time gets set to 10s instead of 600. About once a month. Never could track it.
