The problem is that every now and then the screen turns off and then refreshes, starting with a blue screen the the desktop is redisplayed.
Last night it turned the resolution up to 2048x1536.
I have a feeling this has occurred since installing the security upgrade a couple of days ago.
Any body else having similar problems or know of a fix?
I had a similar, shocking issue the other day. Apparently my B&W doesn't like my electric personality. I walked across the carpet and reached behind the machine to unplug my firewire cable. A large blue spark left the hand that was holding the case, and arc'd to the VGA connectors on my R7000. Both displays went into "scrambled Skinimax" mode, changed resolutions and refresh rates, and caused me to reboot, resetting the PRAM in the process.
Not that this has anything to do with your problem, but that's 2 similar monitor issues I've seen in the same morning on this list, and couldn't resist telling my story :)
