Screen Blanking on LCD but not CRT
Hi all,
I recently upgraded from a CRT (Gateway) monitor to a LCD monitor (Westinghouse). However, after reconfiguring xorg.conf to handle my new monitor, my screen continues to go blank (but still is faintly visible up close). This happens during use, not just when idle. Is this a software issue or a hardware issue? I've many combinations of xset and xorg.conf to no avail. Does anyone have an good advice?
I'm running Feisty. Here's my xorg.conf:HTML Code:
Section quot;Filesquot; FontPath quot;/usr/share/fonts/X11/miscquot; FontPath quot;/usr/share/fonts/X11/cyrillicquot; FontPath quot;/usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpi/:unscaledquot; FontPath quot;/usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi/:unscaledquot; FontPath quot;/usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1quot; FontPath quot;/usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpiquot; FontPath quot;/usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpiquot; # path to defoma fonts FontPath quot;/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/TrueTypequot;
