Alright, so i've had linux running on my Sony VGN-S460 laptop for about 8 months now, gone from ubuntu to arch and settled here.
Now since the very beginning (ubuntu) every time I have rebooted, shutdown or changed the terminal window (with alt+F* buttons) my screen blanks then literally looks like it melting.
I cant see any sort of output while its doing this, and as far as I know everyhting else is running cleanly - I havent had any problems or anything, suspend to RAM and Disk work fine, it seems harmless (my screen hasnt degraded either) and honestly it looks pretty damn cool.
now the problem is I want to use the other virtual terminals, and see my shutdown logs (if there are any.... I still dont know)
the only idea I have is that the video drivers are for whatever reason cutting the power to my monitor... google hasnt helped me and I've been trying to figure out what is going on since day 1
anyone had this problem and fixed it, any ideas?

I had this issue, and solved it.
See my topic here: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=63551
If people do not believe that mathematics is simple, it is only because they do not realize how complicated life is.
Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.
