Hey folks, my x setup at work functions perfectly -- clear, crisp, etc -- except that on startup, or when switching between x sessions or from console to an x session, there's a delay of close to a minute before the monitor activiates (in between, it makes a couple of clicks like it does on first powerup and poweroff).
I had at first just assumed that's the way x works, or a problem with the nvidia drivers, or some such; but I've since set up a couple other systems with nvidia cards and not had the same problem. I thought maybe I would try putting the XFDev option back in my XF86Config-4 file (took it out long ago when I switched from the nv driver to nvidia non-free drivers), but I notice dpkg-reconfigure -plow xserver-xfree86 doesn't give me that option with the nvidia drivers. So I gues that's not the solution. Anyone know what might be causing this problem? Any ideas on the solution? I'm running: xserver-xfree86 4.2.1-6 (testing) nvidia-kernel-src 1.0.4349-2 (no longer current, I see from apt-cache) nvidia-glx-src 1.0.4349-1 a self-rolled 2.4.21 kernel on this hardware: AMD Athlon 1.8 MHz ABIT AT7 motherboard NVidia Geforce 4 MX 4430 ddr LG Flatron 995ft monitor ... but I should say that I've switched around from woody to testing to sid and had the same issues with all three versions.
