A couple days ago I started having this annoying issue: After about 30 seconds of inactivity, my laptop screen goes blank. Like a screensaver.  Under System Settings, under "Brightness and Lock", I have unchecked the "Dim" option and the "Turn screen off if inactive for" to "Never". So my screen should not ever go blank.  I found a similar thread here:  . But the solution there is to turn off "dpms". Well, my dpms is turned off and is still happening.

Thanks a lot!
I have tried as following:  1. Turn off: export DISPLAY=:0.0 &amp;&amp; xset dpms force off  2. Turn on: export DISPLAY=:0.0 &amp;&amp; xset -dpms   Which works but that is a temporary solution, which does not fix my problem yet. When i reboot system it start again and again the same auto turn off mode.   How can i now remotely using SSH turn it off forever?  IMPORTANT:  - KIOSK (ATM machine will use this option) - 24/7 advertising display/slides will use this   Optional Note: this guide i followed   , but permanent solution did not worked.
The residue at $\infty$ I am stuck on the following problem :      $\,\,\,\,$*Problem*$\quad$The residue of an entire function at $\infty$ is $0$.      Solution: True. This follows from the definition of the residue at $\infty$ together with the Cauchy-Goursat Theorem. Another way to see this is to take the Taylor expansion for $f$ at $0$ $\displaystyle f(z)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_nz^n$ and replace $z$ with $1/z$ to get the Laurent expansion for $f(1/z)$ at $0$: $\displaystyle f(z)=\sum_{n=-\infty}^0a_{-n}z^n.$ Then we have that the residue at $\infty$ is given by the negative coefficient of the $1/z$ term of    $$ \dfrac1{z^2}f\left(\dfrac1z\right)=\sum_{n=-\infty}^{-2}a_{-n-2}z^n, $$   which is clearly $0$.   I am having trouble to understand the last few lines (in italic) in the given solution. Can someone give lucid explanation? Thanks and regards to all. My ListView (of my ViewFilipper) fills the parent and buttons on the bottom get hidden Installing an HP Laserjet 1000 I've already installed hplip, it printed a test page, but it won't print from any program. It shows the printer in the list of printers, and it's checked as the default printer. I've restarted a couple times.   When I plugged the USB cable for the printer into the computer after installing hplip, it said printer detected. Then after a couple seconds it said the printer was ready for use.   When I send something to the printer, a pop-up shows that a document was sent to the printer - but there's a triangle with an exclamation point in it next to the message. A few seconds another pop-up indicates that the printer has completed printing the job but it didn't print anything. pyPdf for IndirectObject extraction Following this example, I can list all elements into a pdf file  import pyPdf pdf = pyPdf.PdfFileReader(open("pdffile.pdf")) list(pdf.pages) # Process all the objects. print pdf.resolvedObjects   now, I need to extract a non-standard object from the pdf file.

Can airborne particles pick up charge by contact, then be repelled hence removing charge? If so would it be a significant factor? In an alternating current, do electrons flow from the source to the device? If electrons in an alternating current periodically reverse their direction, do they really flow? Won't they always come back to the same position? Epson LX-310 not working after Cumulative Update 2017-11 Windows 10 I have Windows 10 Pro x32 and an Epson LX-310 printer that was working. Yesterday, Windows 10 automatically updated with 2017-11 Cumulative Update for Windows 10.   Today, I cannot print. The printer status is on. When I click "Print a test page", it quickly says the test page has been sent but the printer does not print it.   My printer is connected to a USB port. What wrong with my Windows 10? Let $A$ and $B$ be $n\times n$ matrices such that $ABAB=0_{n\times n}$.  Can we conclude that  $BABA$ must be  $0_{n\times n}$?   I fail to give a counterexample when $n=2$， so I guess the answer is "yes" How can I produce the codes to get the symbols of pencil, ruler and compass in LATEX? I'm gonna write a sentence I can draw this figure by using simple tools in my presentation. So I prefer to include symbols pencil, ruler and compass instead of the words simple tools. Is it possible? How to extend my root (/) partition? I called my lender last week. I am close to owning 20% of my home and want to get rid of PMI. They said I can only do it by remortgaging my house. Is that true? With the mortgage rates increasing, I will definitely lose some money by remortgaging the house.  Also, I know that I can request the PMI charge to stop if I own 20% of the value of the home, or it will stop automatically once I own 22% of the value. Is it possible that the lender meant I can't do it with 20% but it will be done at 22% automatically without the need to remortgage the house? Why does the zoom sometimes stop at a point? Does the universe have an edge/boundary/barrier? If yes, what is at the edge? My question related kind of to asking what the shape of the universe is. Say a hypothetical alien civilization built an faster-than-light spaceship. If they keep flying would they end up where they began? ie space itself is curved...or would they hit some invisible barrier? Prove that the equation: $c_0+c_1x+\ldots+c_nx^n=0$ has a real solution between 0 and 1. Let $c_0,c_1,c_2,\ldots ,c_n$ be constants such that :  $$c_0+\frac{c_1}{2}+\ldots+\frac{c_{n-1}}{n}+\frac{c_n}{n+1}=0$$  I have to prove that the equation: $$c_0+c_1x+\ldots+c_nx^n=0$$  Has a real solution between 0 and 1.  Didn't know how to start...I thought that maybe I could use something about derivative...But I'm lost... Any help,much appreciated!!! Where to place my local website starting with the 2.4.7 version of apache2? I recently installed Ubuntu 14.04, then I installed lamp-server and placed my webpages in /var/www directory, but when I opened localhost in the browser there was nothing. I think that happened because Zend updated Apache.  Whatever the reason may be, I want to know where to keep my php files so that I can access them from my browser.
