Monitors not sleeping

Monitors not sleeping

Postby rfemali » Jul 28th, '25, 03:51

I am running Mageia 9. I have a mother board (Asus Proart Z790) that only had a single HDMI out so I am utilizing a USB-C port for my second display. When the monitors try to go to sleep, I will see the no input message then both go black but trun right back on. I have not been able to get them to stay asleep and any help would be most appreciated. Thanks.

Hi there, your description seems to miss a few details.
So you have your first screen attached via HDMI, and your second screen via USB-C?
Also do you use integrated graphics or a dedicated graphic card ?

What's the event when the monitors should go to sleep? After like 15 minutes of idle time, or when your computer goes to standby/hibernate or when ?
Also this does happen for both monitors ?

Please post the output of

Code: Select all
xset -q
lspcidrake -v | grep VGA
