Hi.
I have a Samsung Syncmaster 940B as my second monitor, but recently it's been having some issues. When my computer has been in sleep mode for a while and the monitor has been in standbymode, and I wake the computer from sleep, the monitor will usually fail to turn on, not even enabling the backlight.
Normally when it's in standbye the power light on the monitor will blink. 1 beat on, 1 beat off. When it's failing to turn on like this, the pattern changes. The light is on for 1 beat, off for 1 beat, then on for ~1/8th beat and off again.
It's not just a software issue because the monitor still fails to turn on even when unplugged from the computer.
But it's not a permanent problem. After some random number of attempts to turn it off and on again, it will eventually work and start working fine.
