When i resume from hibernate i often get a blank screen, where the login
screen should appear. there is no video signal, shutdown via
power-button does not work, it seems like a complete crash.
the error is not reproducible so far.

i tried:
unplugging external devices, then going into hibernate, resuming
unplugged/plugged

hibernating from battery/resuming from battery (same for AC and mixed
combinations)

closing all programs before hibernation


so far, i get this error about every 2nd time, which is really annoying.

if anyone knows sth that could help, plz post here or email me.

thanx in advance

Markus

Hi Markus,

Have you checked with the manufacturer (this sounds like a laptop?) for an
updated display driver?
