Anyone else having this problem?
Equipment/OS:
Mac Pro 2.66GHz Quad-Core/Eizo CG211/ACD 20/OS 10.5.8
When my screensaver kicks on (our IT enforces a 15-minute max period of
inactivity before launching into screensaver mode so I cannot set to
'Never') and it comes out of screensaver, one or both (sometimes none, this
is sporadic) of my custom monitor profiles for the Eizo (main display) and
Apple (secondary) are dropped by Displays Preferences. The machine reverts
back to the OS auto-generated profiles.
The only fix I have been able to find is to keep the display prefs icon in
the menu bar and click it, open the prefs and the machine then kicks back
into the custom profiles.
I tried creating custom profiles and naming the same as what the OS auto
profiles are named and replacing them in the
HD/Library/ColorSync/Profiles/Displays folder but no luck. This seems to be
a bug between what I can only assume the OS and this particular machine as I
did not have this issue on a previous Mac Pro 2x2.66GHz dual-core.
This may very well be some issue with the user profile our IT department set
up when they configured this machine for me but before I go back to them and
have my machine completely re-imaged I wanted to find out if anyone else is
also having this particular issue. Our IT has our machines fairly locked
down so I cannot test very much (like install a previous OS update, etc.).
