On my MX Linux XFCE environment I have the problem that after a certain time without interaction after power on the HDMI signal is lost and can only be retrieved with pressing a keyboard key. I would that the HDMI signal or display never switched off. I have already deactivated DPMS and the screensaver. Apparently this is not enough. Do you have any ideas about the possible cause? I'm using a nvidia optimus card if this information is relevant. $ xset -q ...
