Hello:
My TDE session frequently hangs.
A message window opens at the bottom right corner
of the screen saying:
"New display output options are available!
A screen has been added, removed, or changed."
After this the screen inputs (mouse and keyboard)
become unresponsive. Running programs keep running.
I have to hard reset the computer.
This is becoming annoying.
I have openSUE 13.2 with TDE R14.0.4.
Any idea what causes this and how to fix it?
Thanks,
Istvan

You don't have an nVidia graphics card do you? If so, it may be worth
while downloading the official Linux driver. I don't know whether
openSuse uses the Nouveau driver but nVidia say that it's been reverse
engineered and doesn't always work.
I had a similar problem with Ubuntu 16.04. The screen, mouse and keyboard
would sometimes freeze and the system required a hard reboot (or REISUB)
to get it back. This may also have explained why the Unity default Ubuntu
driver didn't work either but I had already installed TDE when this fault
occurred.

No, I don't have nvidia card. I have integrated intel graphics.

That output doesn't identify your gfx very well. The PCI device ID ####:#### is
absent. It seems from a quick Google it may be 6th gen aka Skylake.
'lspci -nnk | grep VGA' would provide the PCI ID, as would 'hwinfo
--gfxcard'.

What type of video
cable is connected? What are your display specs?
There is another video driver option you can try. To do so, uninstall
xf86-video-intel, and install xf86-video-modesetting. Then the modesetting
driver should be used automatically on next TDM or X session start. My only
13.2/Trinity PC is using it, but its Intel gfx is a older than Skylake
(Eaglelake, 4th gen), and it's only a test machine.
If you use an IceWM session instead of TDE, do the hangs go away?
How frequent is "frequently"? What apps are running when it happens? Any clues
in ~/.xsession-errors or Xorg.0.log or /var/log/tdm.log or the tail of journalctl?
