Re: computer screen blink



Hi Lina, so you are mainly playing with a server and you are certnaily used an external monitor.
Have you tried with a totally different monitor ?
Are using a VGA terminal or Xorg windows ?
What does dmesg gives against nouveau ?
As root:
# dmesg | grep -i nouveau
What is you actual kernel:
# uname -a
Best whises,
Jerome

Hi Jerome,

It is not a Mac computer.

It has only one System, Linux.

The hardware should be fine as it happens after A BIG UPdating of the system.

Howere, below is the hardware info. for your information,

    Hi,
    you may fist determine if it is a hardware issue or a software issue.
    Some Mac screens are known to flicker after a while.
    What is your computer ? Can you boot on Windows/MacOS to see if the same thing happens ?
    Knowing your hardware may help a lot.
