Using SuSE 9.3. Up until a couple of days ago, the monitor would go into screen saver mode after about 4 minutes, as set in the control center, and then after some short additional time, the monitor would basically shut down, until the track-ball was activated. This second activity is no longer working. I went to the control center and checked the box "Make aware of power management" which apparently had not been checked before, altho the system did what I had hoped. It still doesn't put the monitor to sleep, as it used to. Monitor is a Sony CPD-1730, and has always been well-behaved. What could I do to restore the original performance?
TIA--doug
Pat Shanahan said to try setting the time-out in the BIOS. Thanx, Pat. It worked. I don't know why it was OK up to a few days ago, and then stopped, but I suppose there could have been a power glitch or something.
