Version: (using KDE KDE 3.5.5) Installed from: SuSE RPMs OS: Linux I have a strange bug which appeared with my latest update of KDE 3.5.5 on a SUSE 10.1 system. Hardware: AMD X2 dual core 4800 processor, a Samsung SyncMaster 244T and a nvidia 7800 GTX graphics card. Software: SUSE 10.1 (kernel 2.6.16.27-0.6-smp)with KDE 3.5.5 (kdebase 3.5.5-142.1, kdeartwork3 3.5.5-20.12)and latest nvidia driver (NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-1.0-9746). Bug 1: kdedesktop displays the resolution correctly (1920x1200). However the vertical refresh rate information is wrong. De facto it is 60 Hz (I have checked this directly by the internal status functions of the screen itself; 60 HZ is also reported from nvidia programs); kdedesktop, however, shows 50 Hz. The difference between what kdedesktop shows and what the rate in reality is can be even bigger if you choose another refresh rate. Bug 2: The different screen savers run correctly as long as I activate the power saving checkbox on the kdedesktop power saving window and deactivate any of the subsequent options for screen saving modes and the time period until one of these options starts and gets active. However, when I activate one of the power saving modes of the screen via kdedesktop the following happens: as soon as the mode gets active the last picture of the screen saver freezes on the screen and remains there; the screen does not turn to black or switch off. This does not lead to a crash; everything works as soon as I use the keyboard or mouse again. Nevertheless, a standing colour picture from the "Flurry" or the "Euphorie" saver is not what you expect when the screen should go into standby or switch off according to the choosen power saving mode. This bug 2 never appeared with earlier versions of KDE 3.5 or 3.4 on SUSE 10.1.
"Bug 2" is a dupe of bug 140639, so I'll close this report. Can you report the other issue as a separate report, please? Thanks! *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 140639 ***
