Gnome 3: Screen Turns Off On Startup

I'm having so many Gnome 3 issues, sorry XD.
Ok, for this issue, when I turn on my computer, log in, I can do stuff for about 10 seconds or so until my clicks become unresponsive (i can still move mouse) and the screen slowly "turns off" / fades to black. afterwords i can move my mouse / click / type and it'll bring me to the login screen (the log in screen after suspend i believe? all it shows me is the password prompt) from where i enter my password and I have no more issues from there on.
Just curious if there's a solution for this ^^, had the same issue on my other arch 'top

I have the BIOS configured for the ATI FireGL with swapping off. I'm using the "radeon" driver.
Xorg.0.log only had a few warnings about my keyboard and mouse.
There was only one thing that made a difference from what I've tried so far. Booting to the display manager runlevel-5 and logging in and out of KDE works fine. But if I ever kill X with Alt-Ctrl-F1, the display manager never comes up and the screen stays off. OTOH, startx from runlevel-3 will always cause the monitor to turn off when I logout KDE or kill X.

Hp pavilion 15 screen turn off for few second when i turn on or off charger

Hello,
I bought new hp pavilion 15. i notice many time when i turn on or off my charger, screen turn off for few second then after few second screen turn on. please help me out its furstating me .
This question was solved.
View Solution.

>> It is customary and in this case Necessary for you to provide the exact model of Notebook you have a problem-with. [ There are MANY variations of HP Pavilion 15-T Models, for example. ]
>> You should always be sure you have installed/applied ALL updates for all of your Notebook's hardware devices, and ALL Windows Updates labeled "Important" and ALL "Optional"-section Windows Updates for any hardware device in your Notebook which the Windows Updates service detects (and offers an Update for).
>> For example, this link: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?os=4158&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&sw_lang=&product=6787... has the latest HP Drivers and Patches for a specific variant of the Pavilion 15-T.
>> AFTER you are certain you have all the latest drivers and patches in-place, you can try the 'old Trick' as follows: Shutdown Windows; when your Notebook has turned-Off completely (after Shutdown completes), THEN remove the AC Adapter connector and remove the BatteryPack.
>> Hold DOWN the power-button continuously for a full 62 seconds. Then put your BatteryPack back in your Notebook. Do NOT connect your AC Adapter yet. Power-On the Notebook and Logon into Windows. Check the Control Panel\Power Options settings and find out the Charge Level of your BatteryPack. If it is below 25%, then (and only then) plug in your AC Adapter and connect it to your Notebook... and let the BatteryPack charge up "completely" to 98-100% Level. *Note: if your Adapter has a removable AC cord-connector, be certain that connection is 'tight'. <Do NOT stick your fingers or ANY object into any AC Adapter!> If you even think your AC Adapter is faulty, GET A NEW ONE! Damaging a $400-$800 Notebook PC is NOT worth it, versus the cost of a New Adapter.
>> Use the built-in Help functions of your Notebook to find out how to DISABLE(!) "Hibernation", and eliminate that TROUBLE-CAUSING 'feature' of Windows PCs. When you have done so, always REStart Windows, to be certain the changes are applied. *Many changes and Updates take place 'Fully' only "during" Shutdown and/or "during" Startup of Windows PCs. [While Windows O.S. is "running", most of it's System Files are LOCKED.]
>> FYI: always let your BatteryPack run down to it's Lower setting BEFORE you plug-in your AC Adapter/Charger. Charging any rechargeable BatteryPack at "mid-charge-levels" causes shorter BatteryPack life...

Yoga 2 13 Tablet Screen turns off when in Tablet Mode

I just bought my Yoga 2 13, when I flip it to Tablet mode, the screen turns off. Apparently it goes to sleep. When I open it it turns on again. Do I need to do any adjustments? or is this a defect?

Try updating your drivers first: http://mobilesupport.lenovo.com/us/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/yoga-series/yoga-2-13-notebook-l...
If that does not help, try a factory reset:
1. Turn off your Yoga 2 13
2. Press the tiny button next to the power button on the right
3. Follow instructions to perform a factory reset
If none of the above attempts have helped you, it is probably a hardware issue.

Black screen/turns off random bootcamp windows 7

I have a imac 27" mid 2010 and i am using windows 7 x64 ultimate on bootcamp (3.3 and later 4.0) from snow leopard to lion, i have
recently upgraded my mac with mountain lion.
But after i did upgrade to mountain lion a day later my screen in bootcamp goes black/turns off. I can sometimes hear the sounds when it happens.
The black screen/turn off, is also randomly so its not happening when i do something or opening something. So after a few black-outs i started to get fustrated and i surfed the web for solutions (Option + Alt + P + R), disconnect power cord wait 10 seconds and reconnect, install/uninstall new drivers, reinstalling windows. reinstalling mountain lion and windows but the problem is stil there.
But when using mountain lion i dont have any problems everything works fine.
I think that mountain lion has changed something to the firmware or bios of the system, or changed something to bootcamp?
I really dont know, the only thing i know is i cant use windows as i normally did, and my boss isnt happy when i dont finish my work.
I really need some answers and solutions.
Thanks

Same problem occuring for me, although Windows 7 boots fine in safe mode but when booting in regular mode after the lauch screen it goes black and turns off. Funny thing is that mountain lion didn't seem to be the problem for me instead I believe windows updated it's software for me and then it started happening. Im going to try and reformat partition reinstall windows 7.
oh BTW I'm on Macbook Pro x Retina Display.

How do i turn off the startup sound on macbook pro?

how do i turn off the startup sound on macbook pro?

You don't. You may find some third-party software that will, however. Try Auto Mute.
Alternatively, you can try this:
I think this is the best and simplest solution. Open a Terminal window and type (or copy/paste) the following to turn down the startup noise:
sudo nvram SystemAudioVolume="%00"
Press RETURN.
And to restore it to the original value type:
sudo nvram -d SystemAudioVolume
Press RETURN.
That's all folks.

Screen turns off after a few minutes and needs to be closed then opened

hi, as the title suggests my powerbook screen turns off after a few minutes before my screensaver is set to come on and when i come back and press a key or move the pad it wont start up so i need to close the powerbook then open it up again for it to activate. its not a huge problem but my programs which connect to the internet seem to lose their connection when i open it up again. is this normal? is there a setting i can change?
thanks

Is there a way to "disable" Standby, Suspend and Off just when watching movies (in fullscreen or not)? I want them to do what they usually do in all other cases.
Setting them to 0 in xorg.conf does the thing, but I need that functionality only when I'm wathing movies. Making a script that alters adjustments in xorg.conf isn't the best solution - you'd have to restart X every time you want to watch a movie .
Cheers,
Daniel

S890 screen turns off while playing games

I bought this phone a week ago.Everything about this phone is awesom except one thing. The screen turns off while playing games automatically,which is really annoying. Is there any fix for this??

Graphics card springs to mind;
also, in your game settings, in either options or video settings (or similar). Are the settings correct for your card. I know on a low end PC, "full hardware acceleration" can cause crashing.
I'd still think, it's more a graphics related problem. If you have a big flat screen mintor (e.g 24,27 or even 30") then that, in it's own right needs a good card. Add the game to it and you may have problems. I do take it you have compared the specs with what's required on the box (of the game) and "about this mac/"more info"). All the best.

When screen turn off, my song also turn off.

I bough ipod nano (for my watch) but during I listen music when screen turn off the song will turn off also.

Where you restore? On ipod?
Pls sync with iTune then go to summery tap
and click Restore.

Early 2011 Macbook Pro screen turns off/on

I was listening to music and doing some homework when the screen turned off and then turned back on. The computer wasn't hot at all when it happened. The music also stopped when it happened. After a few seconds it turned back on and everything went back to normal, I had sound and everything. I'm not exactly sure what happened, battery was at 87% so I'm sure it wasn't that. This is the first instance of it happening. If anyone has any advice or knows anything I could do to ensure it doesn't continue or get worse it'd be very much appreciated.

I thought it might have been an update that triggered it, but I guess not. It could be your hardware, but I would try to dianose software reasons first.... such as something else you were running that triggered a resolution change. Whats involved in "doing your homework"?

My ipad logs me out of every site if my screen turns off. It also clears all history. Even some of my email accounts won't let me send mail. Ever since the ios7 update, I am frustrated daily! How do I fix these problems?

Turning off the startup chime?

Anyone knows how to turn off the startup chime? It's a bit embarassing if I start my Mac during classes...

You're welcome anytime.
Please do keep in mind that the startup sound isn't just there to 'annoy'
It's more vital reason for excistence is to inform you when there are problems during startup, like bad RAM or the like.
So once in a while or when not at school, you should enable it again, just to make sure everythings still ok.
Have Fun and thanks for the star.

I am having the same issue. It won;t let me text in landscape - but if I turn back to portrait start typing and turn back to landscape it will allow me to continue. And I am also getting the black screen occasionally as u mentioned

Hello sir my iphone screen turns off after using 2-5 minutes what would be the problem please help me out

hello sir my iphone screen turns off after using 2-5 minutes what would be the problem please help me out

To make sure that this is not software related, set it back to factory settings, without using any backup data afterwards. Set up the rest of the personal settings manually and test the phone. If it still does not work, this is a hardware issue and the phone has to be serviced by Apple or an Authorized Apple Service Provider:

MacBook Pro (June 2010) freezing with screen turned off (not sleep)

Hi.
This issue has happened to me two times now. I recently bought a Macbook Pro 13 inch and the problem has happened when I let the computer sitting there without moving anything with its lid opened, after like 20 minutes when i'm going to use it again it has the screen turned off, the fan on and the indicator light half way on constantly but anything would respond, to use it again I have to hold down the power botton until it turns off.
It was not sleeping because I have the sleep timer set to never, what I do have on is the sleep display timer to 15 minutes.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Please help!
Now I got this then of turning it back again and a 3 min loading of the OS.
What could it mean, I don't know how to read this please
