Just wondering if that's related to a problem mine had: If my monitor loses its signal (such as because the computer going into a power save mode), the monitor would hunt between its various inputs looking for a signal, eventually giving up and going to sleep itself. It would end up parked on an un-used input, and when the computer comes back to life, never notice it. Also, trying to get the monitor to come on with no signal present so that I could select another input was a battle of wills (my will, versus its won't). Sodding menu-driven system with automatics designed by someone who had not thought through what they were doing!!! I miss monitors with just one input, or selector switches that directly go to the input you pick, not some stupid push once to change inputs, push the same button again to change inputs, push it again to change inputs again, with a stupidly slow update speed. Fortunately I could turn off the input hunting feature. Now the monitor always stays on whatever input I select, and sleeps and wakes up fine. I've had two different monitors with that annoyance. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.119.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Jun 4 14:43:51 UTC 2024 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
