Description

The author of https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland/issues/1475 closed the issue for some reason, but the problem is still not solved

How to reproduce

hyprctl dispatch dpms off

Crash reports, logs, images, videos

No response

[marzeq]

Same here, my Lenovo L28u-30 connected over HDMI turns off for a few seconds but then it comes back on, but on the other hand, my Gigabyte G27Q connected over DP shuts off correctly with dpms off

[vaxerski]

log pls

[TAforever]

I'm sorry, the last log was not correct hyprland.log

[vaxerski]

to me this looks like you have a garbage display that disconnects whenever it gets dpms off

[TAforever]

dpms works flawlessly on xorg, sway and if you want, I can test it on river

[vaxerski]

they might remember dpms state after replug, we don't.

What are your ideas? Do I need to change the monitor? But I'm not the only one with this problem

Same AOC connected over HDMI... turns off for 10 seconds aprox. and then it comes back on.

The same for me having AOC monitor connected via HDMI

After i run dpms off the monitor seams to be searching for other inputs disconnecting from HDMI entirely, after it cannot find DP signal it reconnects to HDMI, hyprland finds it as new monitor, maps it and enables it ( which is confirmed by logs which i may send if requested, but not before ) ignoring the fact that i have run dpms off couple of seconds ago

What are your ideas? Do I need to change the monitor? But I'm not the only one with this problem

As with the issue linked here this has never happened to me in sway, and unfortunately it is easier for me to stay with sway instead of turning auto scanning on my monitor, as I use both DP and HDMI on my monitor and am used to sway and have not got used to hypr yet, just wanted to try

they might remember dpms state after replug, we don't.

based on my logs this seams to be the problem ( at least in my case )

[cathartyc]

FWIW I had the same issue since I started using Hyprland almost 2 years ago (I indeed do remember #1475) with my Lenovo L27q-10 (plugged via HDMI), and after reading the Arch Wiki on display control I discovered that I can control mine via DDC.

To turn the monitor on and off, I installed ddcutil, and now I just have to execute ddcutil setvcp D6 01 and ddcutil setvcp D6 04 respectively. Thus, I added them on my hypridle.conf (copying here the relevant part for persistency):

[...]
listener {
    timeout = 240
    on-timeout = ddcutil setvcp D6 04; hyprctl dispatch dpms off
    on-resume = ddcutil setvcp D6 01; hyprctl dispatch dpms on
}
[...]

Works like a charm (maybe I should wrap everything in a script to check if the attached monitor is the right one, one day).

EDIT: just found the same solution in a comment under the original issue.
