Hi, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
When Xorg starts on my laptop (or actually Gentoo boots and xdm is |
| 4 |
started) the X startup procedure involves blanking, or actually powering |
| 5 |
off my display completely. This has always been "standard procedure" to |
| 6 |
me, and I've gotten used to it over the years. |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
However, in my current setup it actually "blinks" or powers off twice. |
| 9 |
It might be the version of Xorg, or it might be this laptop. In any case |
| 10 |
I didn't notice it till now. |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
I've Googled some to find out what's actually going on but to no avail. |
| 13 |
Some says it's probing for external monitors and thus turns off VGA |
| 14 |
which in turn causes my laptop display to power off(?). |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
Is there a way to disable this? I don't need probing for external |
| 17 |
monitors on every X start. preferably I'd like to not have the monitor |
| 18 |
turn of at all. But I would at least like to prevent it from doing it twice. |

I'm on a Thinkpad x60s with this graphics controller: |

|
| 22 |
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, |
| 23 |
943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03) |
| 24 |
00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, |
| 25 |
943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03) |
