Power Saving Drawing "X"?
I've enabled power saving on the monitor after 2 minutes, and sometimes it will draw a white "X" on the screen, why is that? And can I disable it? And, is this power saving just a screen saver, or how does it work?

RE: Power Saving Drawing "X"?
I got this same problem but it hasn't happened in a while.
My monitor doesn't go into power saving mode though. :-(
I don't know what causes it because DPMS is all there.
I am going to try this:

I've switched from kubuntu feisty fawn x86_64 to debian etch i386 with a 686 kernel, and the problem doesn't occur at all. Infact this distro has many more monitor power options opposed to kubuntu which only had turn on power saving after blank amount of time.
Why do different distro's have different settings to KDE?
How are those distro's editing KDE?

I added
Option "DPMS" "TRUE"
to the Device section since I'm using the nvidia driver and
Option "DPMS"
to the Monitor section and it seems to work.
I have no idea why different distros have different power settings in KDE.
