Hi,

My current setup has worked on previous kernels, I think the problem
has begun with 2.6.32.

If the monitor goes to standby/suspend it shows:

"Out of Range

H.frequency 33 KHz
V.frequency 31 Hz"

I can test this with running: "xset dpms force standby" or "xset dpms
force suspend".

I can no longer switch to console with Ctrl+Alt+F2, etc, and must
reboot to be able to use my system again.

Please advise what additional information/testing I can provide to
make sure this regression gets fixed for 2.6.34.

This bug appears to affect all recent distros as they are 2.6.32 based
(ubuntu lts, debian, rhel6).

I have reported the following bugs with little response. I am unsure
whether I have filed bugs in the correct place or against the correct
component.

Please CC me in on any replies.

Thanks,

Lex.

Can you do a bisect?
(2.6.32 - HEAD shouldn't
take too long).

I'm still a git newbie. What specific command should I run and what
output to post?
You want me to do it against HEAD vs "latest known working version"?

Thanks,

Lex.
