Hi All, I have a couple of problems that I need to correct via the console but I keep getting "NO SIGNAL" on the screen before I have time to complete what I'm trying to do. What do I need to change so the the Proxmox Server keeps sending a video signal to the console.
"NO SIGNAL" on console

I assume you are using noVNC, but in what situation does the “No Signal” message appear?
In most cases, this can be resolved by closing the console and opening it again. Could you try that and let us know whether it improves the issue?

You can try the Linux kernel parameter consoleblank: https://superuser.com/questions/152347/change-linux-console-screen-blanking-behavior
The PVE manual has information on adding kernel parameters: https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/pve-admin-guide.html#sysboot_edit_kernel_cmdline

Sorry, I should have been clearer. I using a console connected directly to the server. The server is stopping the video signal before I have a chance to make any changes. I have added the following to the grub and it is giving me a more time GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="consoleblank=600"
As I am still trying to get Proxmox setup correctly I decided to reinstall using the nomodeset option that is offered on the first screen of the install. The install completed as expected and re-started. I logged in as root with the password that was set and was successful. I then returned to my laptop on the same network to connect to the Proxmox GUI but it failed. I then went back to the Proxmox console but the "no signal" message was displayed. How can I investigate and fix the problems in Proxmox if I keep losing the signal and have to do a complete reboot of Proxmox by pushing the power button until the led turns off. Any help or suggestion would be much appreciated.
