Hi, I have freebsd 4.4 with gnome 1.4 and xfree86  3.3.6  when i boot up =
my computer everything is fine.  if i idle for a little bit the screen =
will blank out, which is fine if it does it in the console, but if it =
blanks out in X i think that the kernel is crashing.  If i exit x the =
screen goes to a bunch of crazy letters and numbers and i lose control.  =
if i try to halt the computer from x after the screen blanks out it goes =
to the crazy letters and numbers and freezes.  I've tried using =
alt+ctrl+del but it doesn't work, i have to hit the reset button and =
wait for it to go through the fsck stuff.  I've tried to use apm by =
typing apm -e disable  then i've also tried apm -e disable -h disable -d =
disable.  I've even tried using apm -e enable,  apm -e enable -h enable =
-d enable and i still come up with the same results.  does anyone have =
any suggestions?
