This problem strikes randomly for me. When it happens, it's when my laptop is running in battery mode and I shut the lid. My power management setting is for it to do nothing but lock the screen but the screen gets turned off sometimes and will not come back on when the lid is opened. My only solution is to kill the power.
The problem with killing the power is that I am using the Ext4 filesystem, so when I reboot I get to see all of the orphaned inodes possibly containing important data that was lost as a result of this reboot. Losing data is not acceptable and I'm pretty pissed about this bug. -- Screen locks up black on laptop lid close. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/49521 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
