Could it be that my (old) video card or not-so-old-but-cheap
monitor are on the fritz?


Your monitor blinks off in the middle of doing things, That's a
pain. What does the 20 mins have to do with it?

Get another card or monitor whichever is the cheapest and try again
if we can't blame nouveau. (You switched?)

Running GNOME? If so, it could be #370692

No. XFCE.

It's exactly the *opposite*, since it blinks off when I'm in the

So what do you do when you are in the middle of typing and the

At first, I'd go watch TV until the monitor went into sleep mode. Then I found a work-around of power-cycling the monitor. (I hadn't turned off the monitor since I bought it, since it spends so much time in sleep mode...)
