Screen's does not go to sleep

Post by cpedretti »

Hi and happy New Year 2021, recently i bought 2 27" gaming screen's, they are all 2 connected in hdmi, because GC are 1.4 DP/HDMI and screen's DP1.2/HDMI1.4. (I had link errors on windows 10)

Since then, it has been impossible to put the screens on standby regardless of the time selected, they go into standby for a fraction of a second, then come back on ...

Tested under LM20 and MX, ditto.

the settings are 15 minutes, no hibernation or screen saver.

I did some research, but couldn't find a solution.

My graphics card is a Sapphire RX570 Pulse 8Gb.

Have the latest amd opensource drivers. (needed for the mobo and CPU)

Neither vsync or freesync available under LMDE4.


Any idea??

The 'energy settings' in Linux Mint is a piece of junk that for me never worked properly with any external display I connected.
