lordievaderGood morning.08:05
themusicgod1last night I noticed a pure white screen came up while I was working.  Alt-fn'd to terminal...process "Web Content" was using near 100% cpu.  Killed it, alt-fn'd back to gnome, issue went away.  This happened maybe 2-3 times over a few hours.  Finally, it happened again, but when I went to alt-fn to terminal...white screen stayed09:16
themusicgod1...unfortunately it stayed even after reboot.  Now acer travelmate x483-6691 won't post (or at least the video won't initialize on POST)09:17
themusicgod1I couldn't get it to display on external monitor, but notice that the keyboard keys that control backlight do continue to control it09:17
themusicgod1it sounds from the hard drive spinning up that it does try to boot, though I'm unsure how far it gets(I'm trying to ssh in to no avail)09:18
themusicgod1from some googling it seems like acers do have this issue, and that if it isn't entirely hardware/connection related, the suggested solution is to by default not suspend when the lid closes09:20
themusicgod1I guess my question is it worth suggesting this setting for ubuntu for my particular model?  It might prevent another laptop being effectively bricked09:22
lordievaderthemusicgod1: Your suggestion is better suited for #ubuntu-devel, however if I may give my opinion, it sounds to me like a bug with the hardware.09:28
themusicgod1maybe09:30
themusicgod1though it is interesting that the first time it came up a resync of the video was possible09:30
themusicgod1via software alone09:30
