Hi CA
I running Mint 22 and I get the same issue but very infrequently to the
point I am not concerned about it. The screens (I have a pair of 27"
Dells monitor) will just go black (powered on, but black and then pop
back to life) all within a second or so. I have wondered what causes it
as my laptop sits in a Docking station and had wondered if that was the
issue. Have to say that I am not impressed with with this current
version of Mint XFCE, found it a bit slow and clunky.
Also my current install is a fresh install after the upgrade attempt
from 21.3 tied its self in a knot

Hi All
Recently I _upgraded_ both Laptop & PC from Mint 21.3 to Mint 22 after
several runs with a 'live' version; all appeared to be OK. Laptop was
first, not a problem. Few days later did the PC, all checked out OK:
but when my wife spent several hours writing to friends then playing
Mahjong she complained the screen kept going blank for a second then
coming back as if nothing had happened.
I've tried other programs and the same thing happens. but only on the
PC. My guess is something to do with the screen driver (?) but don't
know what to look at/for.
During upgrade several progs were backdated(?) some removed and others
upgraded. Did not take notes on these comments as they were only on
screen for a short while. It was a major upgrade, not a lot in the
docs gave any idea to the cause of the problem (to me).
This is only since the upgrade, no other changes to anything else.
Screen is a Dell 24", PC is NUC10 i7. How can I find out what's
changed to cause the problem.
