HDMI Display blanks randomly

[Rick]

Bug filed per Question #165710.

The HDMI display periodically goes blank for up to 3 seconds. This occurs at random intervals -- No particular application is running at that time.

The second issue is the poor quality of the text (appears out of focus) and poor video quality. Graphic images display without distortion. I have changed monitor settings (through monitor menu) without correction. Screen shot of partial screen is attached.

I am more than happy to supply whatever information you require. Please let me know how I can assist you.

Hey coyote,

You filed this bug report against natty, but I see it's still open and
doesn't appear to have much activity recently. So, now that oneiric
is released and stable, this may be a good point for you to upgrade
and re-test if this issue is still present there.

If it's solved in the new release and you think it's worth backporting
the fix, please indicate that. Or if having the fix in the new release
is good enough, feel free to close out the bug (or let us know and we'll
close it.)

If it's not solved, leave the bug report open. I can't promise we'll
get to it (we get way more bugs filed than we can usually get to), but
your testing and feedback can help out if and when we do.
