Hi,

I Have a Debian Stable Computer running blackbox and When running X if I
don't use it for a period of time the X session will just die to a console.
I have the computer load to a graphical login and even if that is left for a
period of time then the X session will just die to a console.

I have a 64MB GeForce 4 card configured as vesa for some reason nv doesn't
work in stable for me only on unstable will nv work.

I don't really know what I should do to find out whats causing this problem.
Another problem I have is with xawtv or xine going to full screen. If they
try to go to full screen then the X session will die to a graphical login
prompt not  completely die to a console.

Any suggestions on how to fix or things I can check to try determine the
problems metioned above would be greatly apreciated.

Kind Regards,
Anthony Irwin
