It surely uses screen blanking (and the SDL, too).

Thanks, yes it does. As I thought it looks like its not actually an SDL thing, but by by writing 0 (on) or 4 (off) to /sys/class/lcd/ili8960-lcd/lcd_power).

I'll do that.  (Yes echo'ing to it works)

Sorry, I'm going to follow up my own post, with a cleaner solution. The generic way to screen blank on the Nanonote/OpenWRT seems to be

Display off
echo 1 >/sys/class/graphics/fb0/blank
Display on
echo 0 >/sys/class/graphics/fb0/blank

I'd like to blank the screen after non-use (or just speech output) after
some time interval to save battery.  SDL seems to switch this
functionality off, can someone point me at some application that does
this so I can work out what to do.

thanks

Alan
