[opensuse-xorg] screen remains black after standby on the X40
Hi, I have an observation which worries me big-time!! I have bough in January a Thinkpad X200s. On that machine, the LED-based illumination of the LCD died last friday for the third time. So far, I was thinking that this is a HW issue. HOWEVER, while the X200s is not working I am now using my X40 again. I have upgraded to suse 11.1 and ... guess what: After standby the illumination of the screen remained black!!!!!! This problem is totally random: I had it on standby with 11.1 before and it woke up fine... I was more than glad that it lit again after reboot, but I have NEVER experienced that before on the X40!!! While the X200s has even on-site support the X40 would be dead for good, if the screen dies, and i would be very sad... Is there someone else who has experienced something similar with the X40? Since when does that happen? Has it anything to do with the thinkpad_acpi? If I am the only one with opensuse and noone else has these problems, I guess it'll be time to switch to a different distribution... thanks a whole lot in advance, Volker -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-xorg+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-xorg+help@opensuse.org
