Well those did not work. Still looking for the solution. The only things I can find in the log were about the hd and the nvidia card. The log goes on for several hours and then suddenly no new entries until I restart. Bob
Perhaps it is related with some power save DPMS feature? If you use KDE, there's a place in the control center to change the minutes to standby and to suspend/off. Another option is to leave your computer in a text console and see if the same happens. e.g.: just before leaving, ctrl+alt+f2 and turn you monitor off (I don't think there is energy saving features in the text console, just blank screen) - you may argue that this could interfere with the tests; right, so try again later leaving the monitor on. -- Marcos Lazarini
