OK, that was a bit premature ;-) I already found a glitch: if I generate an USB event (eg click the buttons on the mouse) while the machine is sleeping, it will try to wake up but the screen remains blank. If somebody on this list is on the kernel list too, and they don't know already about this, please forward this (but I expect that they would). I can work around this by unplugging the mouse so I won't click it accidentaly. OS X would wake up from a mouse click, find that the screen lid was closed and it would refuse to power it up (I had to send it to sleep again), so now Linux is at least as good as that ;-) And sleep is worth more than this minor inconvenience, which I am sure will be resolved soon. If there is any information I can collect from the machine and help, please tell me. Tamas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
