Do you have anything being logged in /var/log/Xorg.0.log when this
happens? What are your DPMS settings in your xorg.conf? What video card
are you using? I would assume it's either hardware or configuration
specific as this doesn't happen to me on my Gentoo box.
Well, actually I seem to have solved the problem by editing gdm.conf and
adding lines to get xscreensaver to be the background process, and then
adding a .xscreensaver file to /home/gdm/ with the proper power
management settings.
But to answer your questions, I don't know about the Xorg log, but dpms
is enabled (since power management does work properly when logged in),
it's an older nVidia Riva TNT2 Model 64. So yeah, gdm.conf *seems* to
have fixed it so far. Thanks for the reply though!
