Burn a knoppix CD and see if it keeps happening under Knoppix. That is, if Knoppix isn't configured, out the box, to turn off your screen like that.
If it does, it's a Linux configuration issue, if it doesn't, then it's hardware. Do you have Windows installed on that machine? Same deal. Justin On 4/28/06, Geoff <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
