Hi, i made new installation of MM and had the probelm that the Screen won't stay off and always comes back after a few second after disabling. After some searching i found that there can be some issues with hotplug for HDMI. The solution was to add vc4.force_hotplug=1 to /boot/firmware/cmdline.txt

vc4.force_hotplug=1 for HMDI-0 only vc4.force_hotplug=2 for HMDI-1 only vc4.force_hotplug=3 if 2 Screens are connected (not tested by me)

Would be nice if you could include this in Wiki if someone else is running into the same problem.

Hi,

and sorry for the late reply. Thanks for the info. I will try to add a section to the readme in the next couple of days.
