Screen won't shut off on Dell i8100 with FC2

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 




I recently upgraded my Dell Inspirion 8100 laptop from Fedora Core 1 to Fedora Core 2 and now the screen won't completely blank any more.


I've been using the "nv" driver with the built-in GeForce 2 video card
and I'm nearly positive it used to work.

Attached is my xorg.conf and the following is the relevant output of
"xset q" which I ran from another box while the screen was supposedly
blanked.  You can still see that the system thinks that the monitor has
been turned off yet the backlight is still on:

DPMS (Energy Star):
   Standby: 900    Suspend: 1200    Off: 1500
   DPMS is Enabled
   Monitor is Off

Any ideas????
