Toshiba power management changes screen resolution
I have a Toshiba Satellite 2455 running RH9 and am having an odd problem that I'll do my best to describe.
If I do not type on the keyboard for about 10 mins, the screen turns off. (Not to be confused with the screensaver in X.) Normally, my laptop operates at 1024x768, however when I hit a button to "go back to work" on the system, my X desktop appears but everything appears to be a 640x480 resolution and offset veritically by about 2 inches, with the top wrapping to the bottom of the screen. I then have to exit X via the keyboard, because the aligment is so out of alignment my mouse cursor doesn't allign with the screen buttons. Once I restart X, the screen is back to its normal resolution.
I've disabled the X screensaver, and also toggled between using nVidia's driver and the one that comes with RH9....the problem seems to occur with both drivers.
I like that my screen turns off after 10 mins....just wish there was a way to resume without messing up my screen resolution. Any ideas?
Below is an exert from my XFConfig file. Any assistance is appreciated! =)
