iLamp (2002) and NV-Screen Issue

[Bernd Ritter]

Hi

somehow my other mail this morning was halted :-(

The problem is simply solvable:

edit your /etc/X11/XF86Config and look for the Monitor-Section.

Then replace 
	Option "DPMS"
with
	Option "Flat Panel"

and the problem is gone! Someone else pointed out this here in the 
Mailinglist.
