hi,

anyone know anything about Xorg taking 100% during screen blanking/dpms?

i am running KDE UNSTABLE at the moment, don't know if that could affect anything.

Actually now that you mention it I have the same behaviour on my KDE svn dev box when the screen is blanked, but assumed it was the 100% cpu bug in Konversation with Qt 4.6 from a couple of weeks ago. I'll hang a ssh on it to see if it's Xorg.

Yes it is. A whole lot of this: clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, {130174, 915297665}) = 0 select(256, [1 3 5 7 12 13 14 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66], NULL, NULL, {0, 0}) = 0 (Timeout) clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, {130174, 915435119}) = 0 setitimer(ITIMER_REAL, {it_interval={0, 20000}, it_value={0, 20000}}, NULL) = 0 clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, {130174, 915513694}) = 0 clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, {130174, 915548057}) = 0 setitimer(ITIMER_REAL, {it_interval={0, 0}, it_value={0, 0}}, NULL) = 0 ioctl(8, 0x6458, 0) = 0 clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, {130174, 915656246}) = 0 Anyone know how to debug it?

Hi Will, 2009/11/21 Will Stephenson :

How can I force a given Xorg to enter dpms mode from an ssh login?

If getting access to the X server fails, I fall back to screen: from within the X session konsole: screen then connect via ssh and from the remote shell screen -x this will have both attached to the same screen, inheriting the permissions and environment from the first invocation of screen. Then there, do "xset dpms force off" Have fun, seife -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

Hi,

did you get anywhere on this? At least I still have it with 4.3.82. Couldn't find a bug report on this. (havent tested if it the same for other dists).

Nothing significant, I fiddled with my power manager settings and the problem went away temporarily, but has returned. Will -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

I turned everything when it comes to dpms, screen blanking, screen savers. When I leave the computer idle, after a few minutes this happens again, with the desktop fully visible. And as soon as I touch the mouse it goes away.

A couple of days ago, a "zypper up" from http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/KDE4:/Factory:/Desktop/openSU... pulled in the new KDE-4.4-beta1 and since then I also encounter this issue. I disabled all DPMS settings but nothing appeared to help. I finally disabled "Power Management->Edit profiles->Actions->Dim display when idle for more than" (from kcmshell4 powerdevilconfig) and this has resolved the issue. I have now re-enabled all the other DPMS settings and the system behaves correctly, so (at least in my case) I can attribute this X11 100% issue to the above powerdevil option. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
