Laptop, proxmox, screen saver

OS

I started an older laptop as a proxmox server. I thought about how to turn off the screen so it wouldn’t burn.

  1. Edit the grub bootloader
    nano /etc/default/grub
  2. Replace the following:
    GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=“quiet
    With
    GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=“quiet consoleblank=60
    NOTE: if you have „nomodeset“ enabled, be sure to remove this first, otherwise the display may stay on.
  3. Save & Exit
  4. Update grub with the following command:
    Update-grub
  5. Reboot
