Power Management
« on: 12 February 2003, 12:00 »
Hi all,

After about 5 minutes, I find the monitor going off..The APM settings in the KDE control centre are disabled. Does anyone know as to why the monitor goes off? I would like to change the timing.

Btw, the APM settings in the BIOS are disabled too.

Also, after installing the Nvidia driver, I am unable to suspend the system using the command apm -s

The following error comes up...

thanks,

cmos settings? monitor settings (on the monitor itself)?

can't think of much right now though, kinda distracted.
