[Bug 1507073] Re: Display goes black at random times

 

Sadly that is outside of my know how.  I'm hoping that some one involved
with Sputnik or someone else will be able to make sense of this and
provide a fix.

I have had  the screen flash a few times since updating kernels but
haven't looked into that yet.  Besides that everything seems to work as
it should.

Title:
  Display goes black at random times

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Frequently using Ubuntu 15.04 my display blacks out.  It occurs at
  seemingly random times, many times back to back.

  I'm getting the following messages in syslog each time it happens.

  I can restore my display by either closing my laptops lid and reopen,
  or by running

  xset dpms force off
