I am wondering if anyone is familiar with this problem: Description of problem: I have an error where the screen blacks out [seems to turn off all output to the monitor] after a certain period of time whether I am activly using my system or it is idle. I need to either restart the computer to regain functionality or SOMETIMES i can Ctrl-Alt-F7 or F8 and it will switch back into the X session I had been running. Otherwise Ctrl-Alt-F1 doesnt even bring up the shell, Ctrl-Alt-Backspace doesnt restart X, and the keyboard seems to not function [i know this because no keyboard lights go on for Num/Caps lock]. It occurs after my installation of FC2 x86_64 today and I origianlly thought it may be the wrong monitor that I specificed, but I returned to generic and it still occurs. I am running a PCI ATI All-In-Wonder Radeon [i believe 7000 series] on a FC2 AMD Athlon64 system with x86_64. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): default FC2 x86_64 release How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install FC2 on x86_64 2. Boot up X and logon 3. Use the computer for 10-20 minutes or let it be idle and will find the screen go blank Actual Results: Screen goes blank. Usually keyboard is unrepsonsive to X restart commands or Shell keycodes. Expected Results: X continue to function normally. No reason for the screen to go blank. The drivers and config SEEM to be correct as it takes time for this issue to occue. Additional info: Have tried to reconfigure the monitor display. Didnt work. -Andrew </BODY> </HTML>
