Hi Tim
Thanks for the reply I/m glad it's not only on my system! I'll sit back
and wait for a fix. As you say it's only for a second and then returns
as if nothing has happened. Relieved it's not only mine.

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.
