lspcidrake -v on Aopen Digital Engine hardware.
Can you reproduce with other hardware? FYI you can see packages submitted in the last 48 hours at http://pkgsubmit.mageia.org/ I see nothing related. Can you extract from system logs the list of packages that you updated yesterday? Keywords:

mageia I am updating 7 boxes to cauldron on a regular basis. The most interesting of these are a Brix Pro and the Aopen DE. They are both connected to the same Dell monitor. I am only sure that I discovered this problem with the Aopen box yesterday. Actually, I had already since a long time ago disabled energy saving on the Brix Pro. I could not bring it back from a black screen by moving the mouse. Instead I turn off the monitor by using the on/off button. However, the energy saving had worked with the Aopen, at least "some days" ago. Yesterday, when I had problems turning the screen on by moving the mouse I disabled energy saving in KDE4. I expected that I could turn the monitor on and off manually. But there was no video signal when the monitor was turned on. This is the real new point: the monitor is black, when I turn it on. Should I post lspcidrake -v for the Brix Pro? I can investigate any differences between the Brix Pro and the Aopen DE. (In reply to Bjarne Thomsen from comment #3) > Should I post lspcidrake -v for the Brix Pro? > I can investigate any differences between the Brix Pro and the Aopen DE. I think you're in the best position to investigate it, indeed, since we can probably not reproduce for now. Energy saving works on an Asus Box connected to a different monitor. I have now removed .kde4 and made a new login to see if that makes any difference. Now I am turning to Brix and Asus. Created attachment 6600 [details]
lspcidrake -v for the GIGABYTE (Intel) BRIX Pro
I made a rm -rf .kde4/ and logged into KDE4, again.
Now the screen is turned on by the mouse, after being turned off by energy saving.
I could also turn the monitor off and on manually, and the graphics came on.
So it looks as if the Brix Pro is working with KDE4.
I am now waiting for the Aopen DE3250 (Intel based) to turn off the screen. Very interesting. The screen comes back when I move the mouse! But when I turn off the monitor, the screen does not come back. My monitor tells me that there is no signal from the PC. I should press any key or move the mouse. The only way out is Ctl-Alt-BS, and a login to Xfce, so I can remove .kde4/ I am repeating the procedure to make sure that it repeats. It could have been like this for a long time, as I just moved the mouse, and it came back. I do not know why this did not happen yesterday. Yes, it repeats. The Aopen DE comes out of energy saving when I move the mouse. But I have to use Ctl-Alt-BS to get the login screen back. This problem seems to be confined to the Aopen box. Are we waiting for info or should this be closed? CC:
