I have an older pc with an old slot II Celeron processer. It all seems ok. During the day when it goes into screen saver a small mouse movement brings it right back OK. But when it is left over night and I give it a mouse movement it comes back after a few min. with the screen seeming to vibrate and the mouse no longer will move. I can't do anything with it so I have to power down and restart it. It has an Nvidia MX-200 video card. Has anyone else run into this? Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks Bob

Mind you, I'm no guru. It does sound, however, as if the overnight thing --and particularly the broken mouse-- point more to a problem recovering from suspension or hibernation. What kernel version are you using...? Errors in the log...? -- "Yogi" CH Namast� Yoga Studio
Make shure you have the sleep/suspend function on your Hard drives turned OFF this caused me no end of problems on older hardware a few years ago ..
hdparm -S0 /dev/hd? ..

Thanks! I am trying it now. I will let you know tomorrow if it works. I also updated the Nvidia drivers. Bob
