turn hdmi port off

[Indranil Sarkar]

in Systemd target (graphical) -
xrandr --output HDMI-1 --off is turning off the hdmi and the monitor is showing no signal detected, its working perfectly

in target(multi-user) -
xrandr --output HDMI-1 --off is showing cantopen display, which is no suprise , given xserver is not running.

I want to ask that is there any method via sys or anything else to turn off the hdmi output in systemd target (multi-user)?

Hi Indranil Sarkar,
I use the following method to control display using xrandr via serial console.

First, log in with user id "odroid"

Code: Select all

$ xrandr
Can't open display 

$ export DISPLAY=:0

$ xrandr
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 320 x 200, maximum 4096 x 4096
HDMI-1 connected primary
   1920x1080     60.00    50.00  
   1920x1080i    60.00    50.00  
.....
.....

$ xrandr --output HDMI-1 --off

(then, my hdmi monitor turns off)

I tried to find another solution using sysfs nodes on XU4 but so far, I couldn't find it.
