Hi,
Intel driver outputs *a lot* of logs. Just to test I switched to the
vesa driver and no blanking occurs! (which in turn gives a much quicker
startup time)
Obviously it's a driver thing. So I'll have to look at the docs for the
i810 driver. (although I have no clue where they are(?))
Thanks for the input so far!
Kind Regards, Lasse

Hi,
When Xorg starts on my laptop (or actually Gentoo boots and xdm is
started) the X startup procedure involves blanking, or actually
powering off my display completely. This has always been "standard
procedure" to me, and I've gotten used to it over the years.
However, in my current setup it actually "blinks" or powers off
twice. It might be the version of Xorg, or it might be this laptop.
In any case I didn't notice it till now.
I've Googled some to find out what's actually going on but to no
avail. Some says it's probing for external monitors and thus turns
off VGA which in turn causes my laptop display to power off(?).
Is there a way to disable this? I don't need probing for external
monitors on every X start. preferably I'd like to not have the
monitor turn of at all. But I would at least like to prevent it from
doing it twice.
I'm on a Thinkpad x60s with this graphics controller:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile
945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS,
