Hello everyone,
I have found a lot of information about this subject but the remedies have not helped me.
I have a Dell Inspiron 5577 laptop. Which has a Nvidia Geforce GTX 1050 graphics card.
The graphics card is using the driver selected by the system - Nvidia driver metapackage from Nvidia-driver-545 (proprietary).
I have no other issues with the system apart from this.
If I close my laptop lid, Zorin has been set up to suspend the system. When I open the lid I am presented with the log in screen, I input my password and am presented with my desktop.
All is well until this point, after a few seconds the screen goes blank which is rectified by touching the mouse. Ultimately I have to shutdown and restart to avoid having to do this periodically.
I am certain the power profile is not the cause of the screen going blank. The setting have been adjusted to avoid the system either dimming the screen.
Can anyone help?
I hope I have provided enough information to make a start in rectifying this annoyance.
Thanks for reading.
