Disable DPMS with Wayland

Hi,

because of some issues with my display going to standby, I disabled DPMS for the X-Server with

xset s off
xset -dpms

Unfortunately, I did not figure out how to do this with Wayland. More precisely, how do I disable the standby of my display when locking the screen in Wayland?

Re: Disable DPMS with Wayland

On Wayland your compositor controls the screen. So if you use GNOME you will want to set the corresponding setting in GNOME. As you specifically mention locking, and GNOME utilizes GDM for this, you will want to look at: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GD … ME_3.28.29
