Hi.
I’m running OpenSuSE 11.1 with KDE 4.1.3 and find that sometimes when I
move the mouse to resume work after the screensaver has started, I get
logged out and all my applications are shut down. This happens about 1
time in 10.
Previously, I was running 11.0 with KDE 4.1.2 and had no issues at
all.
My Graphics card is an Intel 965GM. The following is an extract from
from /var/log/messages, and includes the line,
Feb 1 19:23:45 laptop kdm[2474]: X server for display :0 terminated

With regard to the message,
kernel: [drm:i915_getparam] ERROR Unknown parameter 5
I found a thread which claims that:
this message is emitted if you’re using
xf86-video-intel >= 2.5 on a kernel < 2.6.28, because the driver is
poking for GEM support; the message is harmless, and can be safely
ignored
I’m using the standard released kernel 2.6.27.7-9-pae.
Is this a known bug, or is there a software configuration change that I
could make to improve the situation? I’m currently running the
‘performance’ power profile and have deselected the option under power
management to allow powerdevil to manage screen powersaving. (It didn’t
make any difference!)
I hope that this is resolvable, as I have lost work on 3 occasions
now!
Any suggestions gratefully appreciated.
Mike.
