[ltp] Problems with X on A30

[Bradley, Paul]

Sorry...I should have been more descriptive.  Upon the screen going
blank...Ctrl-Alt-Backspace does nothing.  I have tried to use the function
keys without success (Fn-F3).  I have even played with setting that makes
the screen (when booting) stretch across the whole display or making it
little in the middle.  I have not tried to ping the machine when this
happens.

What do you mean by "unresponsive"?  Does it respond to pings?  Can you
log in remotely?  Have you tried using Ctrl-Alt-F1 to switch to a text
console?  Have you tried Ctrl-Alt-Backspace to kill the X server?

I find that sometimes when switching video modes or awaking from sleep,
my A30p's screen goes blank.  Pressing Fn-F3 twice fixes it.
