I have installed Ubuntu 7.04 on our recently purchased
Dell Dimension E520 machines. Everything is fine, except
that after I am in graphical mode (whether logged in or at
the graphical login prompt does not matter), if I go to the
console (using Ctrl-Alt-F1), and then come back again
(using Alt-F7), the TFT monitor does not show anything and
flickers instead. I have seen this problem on other TFT
monitors as well (non-Dell, that is).

Usually it's the video card, and not the monitor, that causes such
problems. What sort of video card do you have?

I believe this got something to do with the Xorg version used
or the kernel version, since I cannot reproduce this problem
using the recently released Debian Etch, or the earlier version
of Ubuntu.

Could you please let me know whether anyone of you have
seen this problem?
