Title:
After closing and opening the lid on an HP Compaq nc4200 screen is
turning on and off periodically
Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Binary package hint: gnome-settings-daemon
I am using the final release of Karmic, obtained by switching to
Karmic already shortly after the Jaunty release and then doing regular
system updates ("sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade") more
or less once a week.
The system behaves normally as long as I never close the lid. As soon
as I close and reopen it, the screen turns black for a second or so
every 2 or 3 seconds. This stops as soon as I kill gnome-settings-
daemon. The problem occurs both before logging in, when on the gdm
screen and after logging in, on the regular GNOME desktop. In both
cases killing gnome-settings-daemon solves the problem, but many
features as multimedia keys do not work without gnome-settings-daemon.
I attach /var/log/syslog. See the lines containing [drm]. They look
like that the system is going through graphics modes in an infinite
loop, but on the screen after each darking the screen content returns
with the same resolution.
