Hello, I have: - Debian SID (updated month ago or so) - 2.6.25 x86_64 kernel on my laptop with NVidia card - NVidia proprietary drivers, most probably 173.14.09-3 (I'm writing this from another computer) Kernel and nvidia are official Debian packages.
The problem: when my screen goes blank, it can't be restored easily. I have to go through alt-ctrl-f1, alt-ctrl-f7 sequence to restore it, which is very irritating. How can I avoid this? Steps to reproduce: 1. Start X (in my case with KDE) 2. Wait reasonable amount of time for the screen to go blank. I guess it is the time displayed by: $ xset q | grep -A3 ^DPMS DPMS (Energy Star): Standby: 1200 Suspend: 1800 Off: 2400 DPMS is Enabled Monitor is On (standby?) 3. Press any key. At that time, I would expect display to be restored. Instead, I get either black screen with different color of black, or random horizontal/vertical lines jumping on the screen. I have to press ctrl-alt-f1 (I can't see text console), then ctrl-alt-f7. It restores my display. I have searched the web, but can't find the answer (forming a question is even tricky). I have only tried to switch "sync to vblank" "sync to hblank" in nvidia-settings, with no particular effect. What can I do to improve my work?
