It is happening now and then but frequently these days. My system E420 Lenovo Thinkpad running 12.04 LTS blacks out and doesn't respond when woke up from sleep by opening the lid.

I then have to forcibly press the Start button and restart the entire system which is creating a headache for me.

Please suggest a way to overcome this problem. Main characteristics leading to this that I have noticed are:

  • When a video is paused before I suspend the system
  • When Eclipse or pgAdmin is running before suspending the system

Hi I had this problem on my E420 Lenovo Thinkpad. The best solution I could find was to just disable suspend when the lid is closed. Its not a solution I know but it will make it a lot less annoying!

I suspect that your Lenevo uses an ATI graphics card. Although I am not certain that it is the graphics card that is causing your problem, the following may be useful reading in order of listing.

Unity does not start after installing the fglrx drivers on 12.10

I hope this goes some way in assisting you. At your own risk.
