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...

(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.

Since everything is still running as it was it sounds similar to
problems with monitors not coming back from sleep.

Couple of questions.

1.  Are you using the nouveau driver or the nVidia driver for your card?
2.  Are you running GNOME under Wayland or X11?

If you are using X11, and since you can ssh into  the system, what is
the output if you do...

ssh systemB
export DISPLAY=:0
xrandr

Using my system as an example, does doing something like this bring the
monitor back?

With the last two kernels, using the nouveau driver, I am having graphic issues. I can open a session but once the screen locks, then I cannot get back to the desktop session.

Using KDE from sddm and Xorg.  These are in the dmesg output.

In previous troubleshooting attempts, some of DRM related messages showed up in a terminal session I had open as well as the kde session when it locked.


This was before the screen lock and just after a reboot.
