I experience this behavior on a T61 so I don't think it's a Sandy Bridge problem. I've experienced it since F14. I also use a docking station and external display and remember back when I was running F14 I found a bug report somewhere confirming that (at least on F14) it was related to the external display. I'll have to look and see if I can find that bug report and also check if one exists for F15 yet.
You're right this is a terrible problem, because at least for me, it's intermittent, but when it happens you can kiss your unsaved work goodbye :( On Fri, Jun 24, 2011 at 7:25 AM, Darryl L.
