Hi list
I was trying to execute the
xset dpms force off
command via ssh on a remote machine but it keeps saying
xset: unable to open display ""
When I am physically on that machine, doing the same command results in the
montitor shutting off.
I tried ssh -X, and ssh -x, tried DISPLAY=:0.0 xset but none of it works.
Anyone has a clue?
WIth kind regards
Andy
