log

Using git commit 692789a293970f70b88ccb6adcf0676d8b495ae2, the screen sometimes becomes black for a few seconds, and then gets back to normal.  This seems to happen randomly.

Apparently it happened again with the patch applied.

It may be an issue with that particular clock.  Does the same issue happen with other modes and refresh rates?  In particular the other 1600x1200 mode?

Is this still an issue with a newer driver (6.9.0 or newer)?

I'm told it hasn't happened in a while.  Let's close it.
