When I start openSUSE RC 1 (from live CD) my screen goes black about
every four seconds, stays black for half a second and then goes back
to normal. I'm using an Asus K8S-MX motherboard and it's onboard video
port, with a Samsung SyncMaster 940N. Is this a known problem/bug in
KDE? If not, is more info needed to fix this problem?

Thanks,

I've seen this when you over-drive monitors. Too high a sync rate
or resolution or some such. Its a monitor self preservation tactic.

Try dropping your resolution, number of colors, and see if it
stops. If so, you might find some settings in xorg.conf that you
can tweak with a little googling.
