You have been subscribed to a public bug by Paul Sladen (sladen): James Rice of Jump Networks noticed that there is a screen-blanker enabled on Ubuntu Server.
James notes that this blanking is not enabling DPMS power saving (thereby negating any power-saving benefit), and is simply turning the screen content blank. This means that the crash output is invisible which is unhelpful on a server (virtual or otherwise). Ideally the screen should (at a minimum) be turned on and unblanked at the point of an OOPs/crash being printed. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Ubuntu server enables screenblanking, concealing crashdumps (DPMS is not used) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/869017 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to the bug report. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
