My name is Sam Hoolihan, and I'm using the Sun4 workstation with a sticker on the front that says: M38-370-10 :18.107.0.29
I have no idea why it is doing this, but the screen, once off the screensaver, will refresh itself absolutely randomly. It didn't depend on the activity or application, but every 20 seconds or so, the screen blanks itself and redraws.
Could this be the sign of a security breach, or what? Otherwise the system seems to be running normally.
I figured I should let you know.
