Thanks for your help.

I unplugged the monitor and replugged it, no black out since, but this was only yesterday; I'll also check the video cards.

Could also be a bad connector or cable.

The VGA port on a monitor of mine recently went bad. The connection
initially started fine, then after a minute flickered on and off, and
then went black. The problem repeated with different cables. Switching
to a different port on the monitor resolved the problem.

I would also look into re-seating the video card (changes in moisture
and especially temperature can move the card around inside the slot).

Usually a kernel panic results in a frozen screen, not a black screen.

Try unplugging the cables from the monitor and the computer and
reconnecting them.

Hello,


I am running Xubuntu 18.04 LTS on an AMD-8350.  Usually runs good with
little problem.  But since yesterday the screen went black two times on
me with the sign «No signal».  I tried to plug the PC into the TV
through an HDMI cable, same thing: «No signal». Further more I can't
even turn the computer off, it won't turn off, I have to pull the plug
from the wall?


Any idea of what is going on?  It scares me, the computer is only a few
years old and, until now, I'm happy with it.


Thanks for any insight,


Gérald
