I'm running 5.0R for a few weeks now (X11 with Nvidia driver for GeForce2) and I noticed that sporadically after a few hours the display got darked and the X screen was recognizable only very faintly. I thought it was an APM thing but couldn't get awakened the screen to full brightness unless I rebooted the machine. Now it just happened again but rebooting resulted in normal brightness first but after a few seconds the screen fell back to irregularly intensity. Very strange. I don't hope that FreeBSD/X killed my display or NVIDIA chip. Any clues? -- Chris Christoph P. U.
