Default I want nothing ( except a global hotkey ) to wake my monitor.

I have the opposite problem.
I want nothing ( except a global hotkey ) to wake my monitor.

The only solutions I've found, so far,
put my monitor back to sleep AFTER it wakes up,

which causes my monitor to displaying an annoyingly bright
"no signal" message, 15 seconds later, hurting my eyes.


I don't know what you're trying to do, but there are
some articles out there on modifying the screen power
states and what displays or locks happen.

You would think with the complexity of the state diagram
for that stuff, they'd have a better GUI method for
allowing the user to program what happens.
