Linux Mint 18.3 Sylvia disconnects from TV

Post by ludoruthmampori »

Good day. I am a newbie with linux. I have a problem with my computer and i cant seem to figure it out.

Linux Mint 18.3 Sylvia disconnects from TV after every 15 minutes as if its going to sleep but it does'nt wake up at the tap of a key on the keyboard. Only when i force shutdown and switch it on again will it connect for another 15 minutes. I have observed that this only happens when the computer is connected to the TV thru an HDMI but when i use a normal monitor it does'nt disconnect. I have tried updating drivers and at some point it will say its up to date but the Driver Manager keeps on saying it cannot connect but i have internet access. Please help.
