Hi Beso, actually, I've never setup hibrnate/standby on this laptop. In |
14 |
fact prior to upgrading to .23-r3 I never had trouble with leaving it |
15 |
for hours on but with a locked (and blank) screensaver running. Now, |
16 |
the 2 days I've run it with .23-r3 it's dropped the keyboard on me. I |
17 |
can move the mouse, but I none of the keys work for me to log back into |
18 |
the box to shutdown or keep working. |

Until the upgrade to .23-r3 I was running the masked original |
21 |
2.6.23-gentoo kernel with no trouble at all. It's weird. I suspect the |
22 |
kernel, but I've done a bunch of other updates this week as well, so it |
23 |
could be something else. |
