Hi Doug

That might be the clue.

I waited until it happened again, did Ctrl-F2 and then restarted then 
xfsettingsd process with a kill -HUP.

Ctrl-F1 then got me back to the login for the X without having to reboot or 
restart VMs.

I've only tried this once ... if it's repeatable over the next few days it is 
at least a workaround until it's fixed in Xfce.

Yes, could be.  I've had 2 other Intel NUC units running fine so but I'll check 
the firmware revisions and BIOS settings.

Understood, and sorry - that's a helpful comment.  It's just been bugging me as 
it didn't happen on R2 R3.0 or R3.1 on multiple machines including the Intel 
NUC hardware.

Does anyone know where to start looking into the issue?

@ Desobediente

Yes I know it's seems trivial but I'm rolling it out to relatively 
inexperienced users and it never happened on any of my machines running R2, 
R3.0 or R3.1 (all on KDE).

[qubes-users] R3.2 rc2 blank screen - screenlock issue?

2016-08-25 Thread richard . f . gould
Problem description:

After using the system all day (including unlocking and unlocking the screen 
just fine) and then leaving it overnight I come back to a blank screen.  

Doing a Ctrl-Alt-F2 gives me a command prompt but I can't get X to respond 
(with Ctrl-Alt-F1).  

After a reboot all is well until after some apparently random period it happens 
again.  

I've gone through the screen locker and power management settings in Xfce 
(turned power management off) and turned of power management in BIOS.  No joy. 

System spec: Qubes RC2 rc2 running Xfce on Intel NUC5i5YRH with 16G ssd.  Kde 
is also installed but I'm not using it.

Has anyone got a solution?
