PopOS 22.04 (or any linux distro) problems with display going to sleep

Software & Operating Systems
1

Hello,

I am having problems when my PC wants to put the displays to sleep (screen blank). the problem is that the display goes blank and 2-3 seconds later goes back to the login screen and this goes on and on.
Can someone point me to the right direction?
i have 1 screen on display-port and another on HDMI.

Thank you!

What is your GPU? If you are on:

  • Nvidia - as you enter your password during logon, there is a gear icon on the lower right. Click it and pick the option that says XOrg.
  • AMD/Intel - as with the nvidia option, make sure to pick wayland instead.
