Hi I have a possible fix, but it is a pure LIRC fix, and perhaps this is not the right way to do it. I have seen that the player will keep the screen on and disable the screensaver each time it moves to another track, so a similar way to do it might be the right way. The Idea with the LIRC thing is to turn on the screen and deactivate the screen saver each time a key on the remote is touched. This is done through the irexec application that comes with LIRC. It will read a .lircrc file that i have put in my home-dir. It looks like:
___________________________ krist...@elisaone:~$ cat .lircrc #this will turn off the screen saver and activate display on every remote cmd begin prog = irexec button = * config = /usr/bin/xset dpms force on; gnome-screensaver-command -d end ________________________ The first will turn on the screen, the second will deactivate the screensaver As seen I use the default gnome-screensaver so if another screensaver is used, like xscreensaver, another command must be applied. I then start the irexec at gnome-startup by adding the following command irexec -d /home/kristian/.lircrc to System | Preferences | Sessions It now works as expected, but I'm not sure if this is a hack or the way to do it with elisa. It is a lot of work for each remote-button-stroke Best Regards Kristian Lippert > Subject: Re: [Elisa] Commands from remote does not wake up screen but > keyboard does > From: [email protected] > To: [email protected] > Date: Tue, 10 Mar 2009 17:52:51 +0100 > > Dnia 2009-03-10, wto o godzinie 13:30 +0100, Kristian Lippert pisze: > > Is this a feature or an error? > > Definitely an error, please file a bug. > > -- > Michał Sawicz <[email protected]> > _________________________________________________________________ More than messages-check out the rest of the Windows LiveT. http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowslive/
