    Default screensaver reboot mystery

    I have Fedora 7 x86_64 installed on my box and just now had it go to screensaver.
    This would be nothing out of the ordinary. Except for the fact that as soon as hte screensaver started, the box rebooted.

    I'm not talking software controlled shutdown/restart reboot. I'm talking instant power off. and then a 10th of a second later, back on and booting normally.

    Could anyone shed any light on what may have happened?

    OK OK... ignore me....

    After extensive testing (all 5 mins.) I've not managed to replicate it.
    Ergo, in the lack of evidence to the contrary, that it was a blackout lasting less than a second.
    It just happened at the exact time that the screensaver started.

    Therefore... thread closed.
