The display --near as I could tell-- just went to sleep rather than displaying all that crap like in the photo. It's a different display* and it doesn't put messages up on an overlay, it just has a couple "trouble" LEDs that are nearly useless for anything. If you need me to, I can try again with the full install and possibly (no guarantees!) get a log out of it this time. *Up till recently my screen of choice was an HP vs17 or vs17c -- they're identical except for the (quite tiny) label AFAICT so I get mixed up as to which is which. Recently I switched to an HP vf52, which is an XGA (1024x768) display rather than SXGA (1280x1024). The DVI monitor is a circa-2007 Dell XGA pile of crap LCD that requires a proprietary fat ugly lunker of a power brick as well -- not that the screen's any lighter as a result, either...</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
