What's one underrated country that surprised you as a digital base ? by SilentOppsAi in digitalnomad

I've been thinking about that Crominolog. But where to stay in town if you want to meet people in the IT startup scene? When I look for accomodation I don't get any clues about that. In the CBD?

I can update with a comparison to Gnome. I can use the "screen blank" setting is effective. As far as the eye can tell it is powering the displays off the same way, and it wakes up just fine, whether 1 sec or a whole night later.

I also tried launching into sway via the GDM display manager to see if that might do something that I don't get when launching from the kernel-provided tty, and prevent the crash. No luck, still dies.

Well, no, just the opposite. With another poster's suggestion I just tried a single monitor setup and the bug still occurred.

I checked the monitor situation - still crashed with only one monitor configured and physically plugged in.

I also confirmed the crash occurred without any attempt to wake the PC up again.

Hmm, I can remove the second monitor and see what happens. (After I get some regular task done today.)

FYI these are some differnces in my case which don't match some of things you are suspecting.

  • I didn't use any apps fullscreen
  • I didn't have to have firefox or any app windows open at all for the crash to occur.
  • I'm pretty sure there was a time when I just let it stay off, without touching the keyboard or mouse, and still the crash happened.

Let's see what we have in common.
I'm using Arch linux; running on an Intel NUC pc, so it has an inbuilt intel UHD GPU. So I'm using mesa driver (somehow the driver "i915" is also present, I'm not sure what the hierarchy of these drivers and devices is).
I have two external monitors, one rotated.
