I code in higher level languages and not for hardware, so I am out of place here, but am wondering how difficult it might be to implement the blank time. Presently, it does nothing.
I see there are plenty of functions there. The ones of interest are allocate and deallocate.
Could I call deallocate to turn off the console and then on activity, call allocate?
Of course, this is an over simplification, but if the concept works, I could at least try it. I think I have unloaded drivers before and the end result is that the console / monitor turns off. It is a bit hackish.
