** Description changed: I have a dell 1420 running 9.04 with kernel 2.6.28-12 generic. I noticed that when I left the my laptop unattended (when running on batteries), right after the screen went white and turned black I completely lost my computer. The "on" led was well.. on, and the wireless led wouldn't - blink with activity but it would stay still. Icouldn't use it anymore, - even clicking the mouse, pressing keys or pressing the power button, - would make me see the screen again, so I had to reboot it by the hard - way. At first I thought that it was a batterie issue, but then it - happened again when running on power supply. I changed the energy - option (when closing the laptop: do nothing). And It continued + blink with activity but it would stay still (paralysed). I couldn't use + it any more, even clicking the mouse, pressing keys or pressing the + power button, would make me see the screen again, so I had to reboot it + by the hard way. At first I thought that it was a battery issue, but + then it happened again when running on power supply. I changed the + energy option (when closing the laptop: do nothing). And It continued happening. It's kind of annoying because i can't leave my laptop on, unattended because I risk loosing my work. - I can't provide an error report because I can't get my computer back to the desktop once it happens. My screen goes black and the on and the wireless led are on and still. + the screen goes black and the on and the wireless led are on and still. + + This is the error that I get running on my screen: + "Write error on swap device" + "Error alocating memory to compressed Page" + Can anyone confirm this?
