My calling foul on tumblerd was premature. Other than eating up one
CPU, it was not causing the 'screensaver' problems. I still get it once
in a while, but not like I was getting with the 4.4.13 kernel. I did
kill tumblerd; I was viewing some CDs with wedding pictures via gthumb
yesterday.

Problem seems to be back, and I see tumblerd eating up most of one cpu.
Something I did caused this to run. Can I just kill it or do I need to
kill more than it?
Tumbler appears to be something pulled in by XFCE. It's a dbus
service for creating thumbnails, so something must be calling it. I
would think that's separate from your screen problem.
So it seems.
It sounds like there's a graphics driver issue. What graphics chipset
do you have?
Been so long since I looked for this info, what is the command for it?
This is a Lenovo x120e
Or possibly a window manager issue. Could you try out a different
desktop for a while and see if it still happens there?
Not really; I would have to install one. I could boot from a liveCD
with GNOME, but I do have real work to do while I am testing...
You keep mentioning QEMM. Do you really mean qemu?
Brain fried. Yes QEMU. It has been a long time since running
Quarterdeck's qemm on a 386 to get access to all that extra memory. :)
