[opensuse] Monitor Wakes Up Randomly
Hi, On TW Snapshot 20160121, I have an issue on my desktop PC where my ASUS VH242 monitor wakes up at random times after it goes to sleep. I'll set it, for instance, to go to sleep after 5 minutes in the Energy Saving section of Plasma 5's System Settings. For multiple days straight, it will go to sleep and stay asleep. Then, for whatever reason, one day the monitor will wake up within minutes of going to sleep, go back to sleep again, and continue cycling on and off, so I eventually just press the power button but this poses a problem if I'm not present. Does this sound like a Linux driver issue or something wrong with the actual monitor? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Seek for this thread: "disabling wakeup when monitor sends hibernate message" Don posted the same problem as you. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)

Don posted the same problem as you.
I do see that message and re-read it, and it's interesting that he also has an ASUS monitor (yet different model) and is having the same problem. I don't know where to start looking either, and can't figure out why for days straight the monitor goes to sleep just fine, yet a few days will go by and the monitor will start waking up for no apparent reason after it goes to sleep and cycles on/off. sdm -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
