Hello list, I believe this is a known problem but I wonder if there is a workaraound for this:
Sometimes when the screen goes to "sleep" due to powersaving or if I switch to console (less often) the display/keyboard is sometimes blocked leaving me with an unuseable computer (remote login to kill X still works and brings back the keyboard). This behaviour is worse when I use an external screen and keyboard/mouse. When I use this configuration and disable the panel a switch from VT7 to a text console freezes everything! If i drive both the screen and the LCD-panel this is better. Is there anything I can do about this problems? I just ordered a port-replicator for my notebook to use external keyboard/mouse/screen more often but if get an unstable system this is extremely uncomfortable! :-( Thanks, Olaf XFree86: 4.1-14 (all packages) I also tried the xv-enabled driver from the gatos project, still bad!
