I am having a really annoying problem in Xubuntu. When my ThinkPad 600 goes to sleep it wont wake. I then have to take the battery out before I can turn it back on.
There are a few important things to know: what kind of 'sleep' is it? Suspend to disk (often called 'hibernate')? Or suspend to RAM (often called 'suspend' or 'sleep')? If you've tested only one, does the other work? Can you descibe more fully what happens when I tries to resume? Does the disk spin back up? Does it have a power button that gives any indication such as flashing? Do any fans make any noise? And (sorry if this is a silly question) but can you hold the power button down to make it switch off? Sometimes resume issues can be related to restarting the display.
