I just installed a 4meg S3 ViRGE/DX card earlier today, and occasionally (it's happened 3 times so far) the monitor flashes to black and then right back into WindowMaker after a second or two. The card I used to have was a 1meg Diamond which ran the S3 server.. I never had it happen previously. I have the monitor specs the same as they were with the Diamond.. the only thing that's changed in my X settings is the card and the resolution. I have it running at 1024x768 @ 16bpp instead of 800x600. The monitor isn't clicking or making any unusual sounds or anything, and it seems to be kind of random as far as when it happens. Has anyone seen this before? What could be causing it to randomly flash out like that?
