If it happens, it usually happens several times in a row, and then it is good again for a day or so. I do have Option "DisplayPriority" "HIGH" in my xorg.conf, and radeon.modeset=0 in my boot params. These settings seems to have helped somewhat (before I had them, the incident occured much more frequently), but didn't fix it completely. My card is a Radeon RS690 (X1200 Series): > lspci | fgrep VGA 01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RS690 [Radeon X1200 Series] 3. What I expect to happen: The screen should not blank while I'm actively working with the computer 4. What does happen: The screen blanks, even while I am active To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/959775/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
