I have now prevented Xmir from turning the physical display off under Unity8:
https://git.launchpad.net/~xmir-team/xorg- server/+git/xmir/commit/?id=9a508dc77fd68f8ba321e82ed0d7c36df1ddf745 However it appears Xmir will still blank the Xmir window to black. Sounds like we need to launch Xmir with additional options to prevent that... -p # screen-saver pattern duration (minutes) -s # screen-saver timeout (minutes) v video blanking for screen-saver -v screen-saver without video blanking ** Also affects: xorg-server (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags added: xmir ** Changed in: xorg-server (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: xorg-server (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Daniel van Vugt (vanvugt) ** Changed in: xorg-server (Ubuntu) Status: New => Fix Committed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1521403 Title: Unity8 crashes on suspend/standby with SIGSEGV in Screen::makeCurrent (./src/platforms/mirserver/screen.cpp:406) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1521403/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
