Okay; I can login over the network...(which surprised me since I am used to that not working due to my experience with early version of the drm bits which is why I purchased the Nvidia...) X does stop running, no stray processes that I can see in top, systat, nor ps -waux. I can post it if needed. Nothing is logged in Xorg.log. While logged in over my LAN, I tried going to single user mode to see if that would jostle things and restore the display. It didn't work. So I thought to unplug the keyboard and mouse, and then I punched the reset button which did restore the monitor and I could see on the wall that the keyboard and mouse detach/reattach were displayed. Even in this context, that seems weird, right? Maybe it's some weird thing with the monitor heretofore untickled? I note that if I turn on the desktop, prior to turning on the monitor, the display does not...display. ISTR that is normal(?) for vt? Also, for some reason,while the monitor is able to do 144, it is by default set to 60....I can use xrandr to switch to 144 but so far my attempt to specify it in a config file fail and I've used the instructions in the handbook as recently as two weeks ago. Anyway, Kevin, thanks for your reply and if you have any ideas I'm listening. Best regards, J. Altman
