[-k | -m ]
[-d inactivity-timeout]
[-e wakeup-delay]
[-f framebuffer]
[-i input-device] |

{-b | -u } |
screenblank
disables the framebuffer if
the keyboard and mouse are idle for a period of time, and re-enables the
framebuffer when keyboard or mouse activity resumes.
When killed with a SIGINT, SIGHUP, or SIGTERM,
screenblank
will re-enable the framebuffer. The pid
can be found in the file
/var/run/screenblank.pid.
The options are as follows:
-b
-d
inactivity-timeout-e
wakeup-delay-f
framebuffer-i
input-device-k
-m
-u
Note that the -k
and
-m
flags are mutually exclusive.
screenblank
.screenblank
checks the access and
modification times of the devices it is monitoring to determine activity. If
the devices are on a file system mounted with the
noatime
and/or nodevmtime
options, it will not function as expected. A possible workaround is to use a
script as such:
#!/bin/sh /usr/sbin/screenblank -d 0 -e 0 && read /usr/bin/pkill screenblank
