It's kinda weird - I use a Westinghouse LVM-42w2 HD monitor, but I have both FC5 and FC6 supposedly using the refresh rates it gets from the monitor for the 1920x1080 display mode, so the fact that it is much more frequent on FC6 (and I've never seen it happen on Windows) makes me think it is more like a random bug of some kind than a refresh rate problem. (The monitor will tell me if the signal is out of range, and it doesn't do that, it just turns off). It also shows some tendency to happen more frequently when running things like opengl screensavers than when running a simple 2d desktop. > You can also check the archives for past discussions. I have poked around some in the past, but never saw anything that seemed exactly like this. In any case, it doesn't bother me too much, since waiting long enough eventually seems to make it stop happening, and I generally leave this machine up all the time. -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
