display on/off, dimming, lock is actually called by MCE (Mode Control Entity)
you can look at the mce.ini file but be very careful, if n900 can't read some settings it will not start. if you stick bad character in the wrong place, maybe you have to reflash
there's obviously some dbus command or window flags you can set to prevent sleep mode too, just try to find some open source video player and see how they do it.
if you really want to write to the framebuffer, search for directfb.
okay i see, you want it to freeze on the lock screen, without dimming... i would look at those mce.ini settings first, might be something in there.
here's some more dbus stuff you can try:

...without the time
:-(

mplayer is not been showed. the key-wondow is ONLY shown if locked...
:-(
>mce.ini
no setting-possibility to set the delay for the slider window to prevent going to black screen
:-(

did you look at the dbus stuff?
MCE_DISPLAY_ON_REQ "req_display_state_on"
-or-
MCE_TRIGGER_POWERKEY_EVENT_REQ req_trigger_powerkey_event
i would think one of those would wake up the screen without unlocking it

Hello Creamy Goodness ,
>MCE_DISPLAY_ON_REQ "req_display_state_on"
this one only gets the display on
whenn it is locked, the key-window is shown and not the
time
Keeping the key-window ON is no problem if I use the
brightness-applet...
>MCE_TRIGGER_POWERKEY_EVENT_REQ req_trigger_powerkey_event
I didn't get this one to work. I alway got wrong name(parameter)
I think this one is use if you want to check the power-key if it was pressed...

..solution till now...
I opened a thread :
http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...139#post888139
....to see the time on my N900, WHILE my device is locked at office (privat messages, pictures,...) without success yet...
A solution would be:
1)
to replace the slider-window by changing the sourcecode that it does not switch off my display after 4/5 seconds, but I do not know how?
2)writing the TIME on the screen with the lock-keys
3)
write the time directly on framebuffer (at key-lock-screen ,it stays on)
Has anyone an idea how to write the time directly on the framefuffer-device?
(I tested with mircowindows, but that is no good library anymore...)
thanks for any help!
