System alive but can't access from the monitor

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

 



Folks,
I have 2 F25 systems that have been updated today. These 2 systems share a monitor. One system is attached via a kvm switch to the monitor, the other system is attached via hdmi. This morning and twice this evening a problem has started to manifest itself. This configuration has been working fine for several years. I will call the systems A and B, system A is attached to the monitor via hdmi, system B via VGA. If I switch to system A for a while and then try to switch back to system B the monitor instead of staying on VGA cycles from VGA to DVI to HDMI and returns to system A. I can ssh into system B and everything looks fine, i.e. things that were running under my user id are still running, e.g. chrome and firefox. I looked at /var/log/messages and I see this:

Mar 29 23:00:02 jackstraw systemd: Stopping User Manager for UID 0...
Mar 29 23:00:02 jackstraw systemd: Stopped target Default.
Mar 29 23:00:02 jackstraw systemd: Stopped target Basic System.
Mar 29 23:00:02 jackstraw systemd: Stopped target Sockets.
Mar 29 23:00:02 jackstraw systemd: Closed D-Bus User Message Bus Socket.
Mar 29 23:00:02 jackstraw systemd: Stopped target Timers.
Mar 29 23:00:02 jackstraw systemd: Stopped target Paths.
Mar 29 23:00:02 jackstraw systemd: Reached target Shutdown.
Mar 29 23:00:02 jackstraw systemd: Starting Exit the Session...
Mar 29 23:00:02 jackstraw systemd: Received SIGRTMIN+24 from PID 17588 (kill).

This was at the time I switched from system A to system B. Each of the other times I saw this problem I see the same set of messages in the log file. Can someone explain what they mean and could they be the cause of the problem?

I see the same messages on the other system, but there they were part of other messages related to rebooting the system.

The only way I can recover is reboot the system.

Here's my video card info:

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation G86 [GeForce 8500 GT] (rev a1)

Any assistance is appreciated.

Thanks,
Paolo
