I need hard power button off after Fn-F7


Hi,

my machine is a IBM Lenovo Laptop T60; there I can change the screen resolution by
pressing Fn-F7, e. g. to adjust the screen resolution to a beamer or whatever.

When I try to do so, the system hangs immediately: no key or key combination shows
any reaction, inclduding Fn-F4 (Standby), Fn-F12 (hibernate), Control-Alt-Del.
Screen is black. I need to switch the system off using the power button.

It used to work before I have installed Cygwin.

As a workaround I found:
1. manually killing XWin
2. Fn-F7 (then works fine)
3. starting "/bin/startxwin -- /bin/XWin" again

That works 100%. 
But it's dangerous, that I will once forget these manual steps.

Does anybody have an idea how to fix this?

Thanks!
Paul.
