Just installed Zorin 9 Lite onto a Toshiba Satellite 1400-153E
(1.33GHz Intel Celeron with 740mb of RAM - Display not sure of the driver)
When Zorin starts up I get the normal blue screen with the Z then after 20-30 seconds the display goes blank permanently.
I think the laptop is still running Zorin as I can ping it from another PC and hitting the power button causes the disk to be accessed and final after a few second the laptop powers down.
I had to install Zorin twice because the first time during the installation the display did the same if I didn't touch the keyboard or mouse (Second time kept moving the mouse every few seconds) so I think this is something to do with display power saving/blanking.
Can't telnet to the laptop though
Assume there's some boot flag that could help out
I'm used to Solaris on SUNS and a bit Redhat/Fedora so OK with command line stuff.
Thanks in advance
