I have a Dell Latitude E6410 with nVidia graphics, using the nouveau driver in F17 and gnome-shell. When the machine is docked and using the remote display, all is well until the screen blanker times out. After that, I'm unable to wake the screen up. Opening the lid doesn't help (not too surprising, given that the main screen is set to be off when the remote is attached); switching to a VC doesn't help (which is surprising). The keyboard still works, so I can blindly switch to a VC and reboot, but it's not workable to have to reboot after every 10 minutes of idle time. I created a second userid and tried working with that, and the problem does not recur there, so it apparently has something to do with the configuration of my main userid. I had at one point installed the weather extension and the system monitor extension, but they were problematic so I deleted them (before I tried the experiment with the other userid). That fixed a problem where the screen wouldn't wake up even when undocked, but hasn't fixed this. So any idea what I should look for in my userid's configuration files to fix this?
