Re: [orca-list] taugling the moniter

[Anthony Sales <tony sales rncb ac uk>]

Muhammad, if you want a keybinding to turn the monitor on and off open the keyboard shortcuts manager from 
the preferences menu navigate to and click the add button. Call it on-off and then type in the terminal 
command: monitor-toggle (assuming you have installed it - if not run: sudo apt-get install monitor-toggle) 
then add whatever keybinding you want to use e.g. ctrl+shift+alt+m - then you can turn the monitor on and off 
easily.

Monitor-toggle is a custom built script by Bill Cox which checks the current state of the monitor and then 
turns it on or off accordingly.

There is a specific Vinux support list if you want help and advice - you can find a link to it on the Links 
page of http://vinux.org.uk

Dear all Greetings,
I would like to have a uttility that can enable me switch on and off the
laptop screen. I know the terminal command but just if a program is
available?
I'm having Vinux 3.0.
Regards,
Muhammad Babar Shahzad.
