thank you very much for this, this is really promising, i think i can fix my problem with these hints. ![:-)]( "Smile")
edit: yes, this works fine even without writing my own drm/kms driver, though i'll look into this next, seems like a fun project.
for now i run the kmsblank command via python script and inject the <enter> key when i want the screen back. these are my tests if anyone wants to use this workaround:
kmsblank.py:turn hdmi off and on again (from a different python script, since the kmsblank command enters a while(True) loop until <enter> is pressed):
