Stuck in stand-by
This has happened one or twice before this week but more often recently i have got stuck in stand-by. What happens is i close the lid (set to stand-by) then walk away or pack it up into my laptop bag. Then when i come back to it and open the lid i realize that the panp5 is still on. black screen with back-light and a flashing hyphen/underscore? in the top left hand corner, sometimes no hyphen. This has happened 3 times in the past week
in order to solve this i have to hold down the power button and do a cold boot.
programs open-
firefox (all the time)
Open Office (more recently) - 2 or 3 windows
Miro
other particulars
if my battery is fully charged i take it out on AC power, sometimes i put it in while it going to into stand-by but typical i put it back in before or after.
not sure how much the extra info is going to help but may be someone else is having a similar issue and they can compare?
Laptops: S76 Panp5, HP tc4400
Other: numerous old desktops/laptops running ubuntu or puppy linux
