12" Rev. A AlBook: After updating to the latest 10.2.8, it will no longer wake from sleep in clamshell mode. I also can't reboot from single-user mode. I tried applying the combo update, repaired permissions, fsck'ed the disk, etc.
I do not like those green links and spam.

I'm not sure if this is related but my computer completely freezes after waking up from sleep (clam shell) and forces me to manually shut it off. Has anyone experienced this similiar issue?

I hope its not hardware related.

thanks-

my new 15 will drop mounted servers and apps will crash when it wakes up. Think I am puting 10.2.6 back on tonight.

I get a kernel panic about 1/4 of the time when I wake from sleep on battery power. It's driving me crazy. There's another thread about it somewhere, more people are having issues. They don't all sound exactly the same, but there does seem to be a general wake from sleep problem.

The OS 10.2.8 "Fix" has had a very adverse effect on the alu series power managment system. You will experience full grey screen kernal panics in wake up from sleep if you have it plugged in before putting it to sleep and wake it up without the plug still in...and vise versa. You will also have the same result if you try to adjust your power setting in System preferences with another app running.

10.2.8 has really been Apple worst OS 10 update.

You will need to revert back to whatever you were using before, 10.2.6 or 10.2.7.

Period!

Luckily, I always carbon copy clone a complete computer with the install disk version on it on to a hot pluggable firewire drive for this very reason.

I had to revert my 17, 1.33 back to 2.7 today....absolute BS!!

I will wait for my copy of 10.3 to arrive thank you.

BINGO!

I shut down, swapped the ram into different slots and when I did the drill, startup, repair permissions, I did ran a few apps, shut them down and put it to sleep.

I then unplugged it and went to wake it back up and poof! The screen just went black and it shut down.

So I took out the ramjet stick and put the Apple Samsung one back in the rear slot.

Did the drill (see above) and tried everything to crash it and no dice.

Bad ram.

I will try to bonk it over the next few days to see if it does it but I think that is what it was.

So....sorry for the 10.2.8 flame.
