"between random intervals" -> "in random intervals" When using proprietary nVidia driver the screen goes black too. My monitor is: HP 1740 http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/12127_div/12127_div.HTML This bug present in drivers for Windows XP too. (In reply to comment #6) > This bug present in drivers for Windows XP too. > This sounds like a hardware error/bug. Sorry about the phenomenal bug spam, guys. Adding xorg-team@ to the QA contact so bugs don't get lost in future. xf86-video-nv has been officially unmaintained for a bit now, and we are closing all -nv bugs. If your problem was not addressed, and -nv is still broken, please try xf86-video-nouveau. Thank you. |

My video card is Galaxy GeForce FX 5500 (please see the URL). valentin@darkstar:~$ /sbin/lspci | grep VGA 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV34 [GeForce FX 5500] (rev a1) valentin@darkstar:~$ Part of xorg.conf: Section "Device" Identifier "Auto_Configured_Card" Driver "nv" VendorName "nVidia Corporation" BoardName "NV34 [GeForce FX 5500]" EndSection When I using the DVI-D interface, the screen goes black for approximately 1 second between random intervals (sometimes 30 minutes, sometimes 1-2 seconds). The period between blanks is shorter (1-2 or few seconds) when I scrolling content in the web browser (sometimes). When I change the configuration like this: Section "Device" Identifier "Auto_Configured_Card" Driver "nv" Option "ShadowFB" "on" # <-- please see this line VendorName "nVidia Corporation" BoardName "NV34 [GeForce FX 5500]" EndSection screen dont't goes black, but drawing the objects on the screen is too slow. When I using the old analogue interface between monitor and video card, the video card is working properly (but i don't like this interface because the quality of image is low).
