Hello everyone,
I’ve recently created a home assistant kiosk using a raspberry pi 5 and a 14th touchscreen. (using this guide - https://pimylifeup.com/raspberry-pi-hom ... ant-kiosk/ )
I have everything working with the exception that I can’t get the screen blanking to work as I want.
The touchscreen is plugged into the pi via usb A & hdmi micro (power is suppled separately via usb c).
My assumption is that when the screen blanking occurs, it also turns off power to the usb A ports (please correct me if I’m wrong) so consequently touching the screen once this has happened does nothing...
Is it possible to tell the Pi to keep the usb ports on at all times (assuming my above theory is correct)
I don’t want to keep the screen on 24/7 and equally don't want to restart the pi everytime I need to turn a light on/off.
Thanks in advance!
