I have the same issue. The display comes back after shorter times of standby/suspend. If standby/suspend time is longer than approx. 2 hours, it stays black. But I can still access via ssh and webUI. I tried with dpms standby and suspend. But it makes no difference.
I think it is not the display itself, because the dpms function seems to work and I see not why its standby mode should be changed after a long time. Is it possible that the touch controller or something else goes into standby? So it doesn´t recognize the touch to wakeup. Is there a command to force the display to turn on manually?

I have been trying various settings.

xset -display :0 q shows the various timings for the screen to turn sleep, suspend and turn off and whether the screen is currently on or off.

xset -display :0 dpms force off will turn it off.
xset -display :0 dpms force on will turn it on.

Initially if the screen turns off I can turn it on by touching the screen or running the force on command. The query command will correctly reports if the screen is on or off.

However, if I leave the raspberry pi running for some hours, the screen will have turned off and I cannot get it to come back on by either touching the screen or running the force on command.

Even after running the force on command the screen remains off but the query command will report the screen is on. I have had to go to work so will experiment again when I am at home.

Hi there.... what do i need to change to make it work / adjust it to the 5inch touchscreen from waveshare?

Hi nanoqui,

the Display has HDMI input, right?

If so it should work out of the box.
The only problem could be the touch driver, but this has to be tested.

Display works, only thing I don't know is how to adjust it so that the whole screen is filled. Right now I have the rune display a white stripe and 1-2cm black.
Can I modify that in the config.txt file or do I have to dig deeper...?
Thank you
