Only Alex's launcher program uses the screen saver API, and
those don't blank the screen.  It sounds like you've got some
other problem, rather than Nano-X doing it.

Try running bin/mdemo, this is a single linked application
that will stay up forever.  If it doesn't work, your problem
is in some other area.  (Is there a system screensaver running?)

Regards,

Greg



: I'm trying to debug this problem I've had for a while.  After about 5
: minutes the lcd I'm running nano-X on goes kinda mostly black, there is
: some reverse video so I can just make out the general shapes of the
: buttons.  I'm assuming that this is probably some kind of a
: screensaver?  This happens for the nano-X demo programs as well as for
: my FLNX programs.
: 
: I've tried calling GrSetScreenSaver from my FLNX program, but changing
: it's parameter doesn't seem to change the blackout behavior.
: 
: One Red Herring Note:  I noticed the GrSetScreenSaver function's
: signature requests an unsigned long, but the docs suggest using a -1 to
: disable the screen saver.  Is this some sort of 2's complement cheating
: thing?
: 
: Any Suggestions would be much appreciated.
