Hello Tom, I had a similar problem with HP tx1000 laptop.
When the screen goes to sleep, the X-server must be started again.. ..or alternative you can type ctrl+alt+F5 and (or?) ctrl+alt+F7 (one of these starts the display mode again). This did the trick for me, so at least I dont have to start the x-server (and log out) each time. Hope this crappy solution might help you. ;) .. I still have a mysterious halting of the system every now and then (that might well be because of the *** nvidia driver). .sampsa 2008/1/24, Tom Cada <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > I have a HP DV9000 series notebook which uses a Nvidia GEForce 6150 > video card.
