I did not had any problems since I bought my Iyonix at beginning
of 2003. Due to the discussion in this groups about silly stripes
on the screen I made the following try:
I switched my screen power saving on which I never did before (I preferred
the manual method). Since I did this I am getting occasionally after the
screen wake up silly small stripes somewhere on the screen. It is an
indicator to restart the machine for it will crash a short time later.
So on my machine any video trouble is directly related to incorrect
screen saver programming however (RISC OS 5.11). For this is not
happening every time it seems a very subtile bug. Is the grahpics
card going into sleep also at DPMS mode? So perhaps some basic registers
are lost under certain circumstances or the bus timing behaves
incorrectly at wake up. Is this perhaps an effect how long DPMS
is activated and some data on the card are lost or are having
a random state eg. after 5 minutes?
