Laptop screen problem when opening

I use acpid to control my laptop lid behavior instead of systemd.  I have it so "vbetool dpms off" gets executed when the lid is closed, and "vbetool dpms on" when the lid is opened.  However, once in a while, I will open the lid and it appears that dpms failed to turn on.  Closing and reopening the lid is able to set dpms back on.
My graphics card vendor is Intel.  The acpi events have never failed to register, so I don't think it has to do with the acpi events not going through.
Any advice on how to determine what's causing this?
UPDATE: I got this behavior to occur while I was on a framebuffer, and this was the output:
[drm:intel_enable_transcoder] *ERROR* failed to enable transcoder 0
Where to look next?

  • Strange problem when opening word doc situated in WLS virtual dir

    Hi all,
    we have a strange problem when opening word doc
    situated in C:\Oracle\Middleware\as_1\forms\webutil
    we put some word docs there and tried to open from forms using for example web.show_document('http://wp0606:9001/forms/webutil/mug00103.doc', '_blank');
    no problem using FF, however in IE8 the word doc is shown in its binary format, this also happens when we try to open the doc in IE8
    however when we google and search for instance for a test.doc and then click on this url a file save dialog is shown
    that's why we believe that this might be due to a configuration issue of WLS
    any help would be greatly appreciated
    Kr

    I think you have 2 ways to go here. Figure out what html is from wherever weblogic gets it, meaning you have to delve into the docs, snoop
    around in directories and find what it must be sending (This is going to be unavoidable if you are going to change what weblogic is doing.
    Sooner or later you have to try to figure out where it gets this stuff from)
    or
    you can experimentally snoop on your url with a tool like wget or curl. These are fundamental web tools.
    The latter is always a useful thing to be able to do. (you need to formulate a query to get the content-type).
    Whoever managed to get weblogic to serve any files in the first place probably can figure this out.

  • Problem when opening "Mail"

    Dear members of the Apple Community,
    After transferring my files and my profile on my new Macbook pro, I keep encountering a problem when opening "Mail". Each time I try, the app asks me to choose a mail account to add, but I already added the ones I normally use. I can either create/add this new account or click the "cancel" button. I cannot use the program (the main functions are not available). But if I try to add a new account, Mail does not upload the new messages for my existing accounts and if I click "cancel", the application simply close itself. What could I do?
    Thanks a lot to your help.

    It might be worth running Disk Utilities and then Repair Disk Permissions to see if that resolves the problem.

    WiFi signals get stronger the closer the machine is to the router and the less interference/blocking of the signal like via walls with metal in them or of thick concrete.
    Since the signal emanates outwards in a sphere, your supposed to place the wireless router in a central location in the building so it covers all areas.
    The power of the router also has a affect, if your router is old or something not that powerful like a Airport Express, it doesn't have the ability to filter out other signals or enough punch to get through walls etc. or cover a large area as effectively.
    If you buy/have a powerful router of newer make and have issues where there is metal in the walls or thick concrete, then you can buy something like OpenMesh and by using Ethernet cables from the back of the router, extend the WiFi signal into other rooms and areas past the blockage.

  • Strange problem when opening new message.

    I have a rather annoying problem when I open a newly received SMS from a particular contact (lets call him Bill).
    When I open the new message from Bill, either by swiping to unlock or touching a banner message at the top of the screen. Instead to being shown the message itself, I will automatically be taken to the 'start new message' screen with none of our message history (i.e. as if I am starting to type an entirely new message to Bill)
    I can then cancel this and return to myself and Bill's normal message stream.
    Any ideas how to get around this annoyance? Thank you.

  • External screen dims when opening different apps?

    Hi All ----
    Seems my external screen dims and rectifies when opening different apps - like some kind of brightness adjustment going on... it doesnt happen on the MBP, just on the external screen --- i've checked all possible settings on Ext. Displ. / re-booted / repaired perms... cant quite figure it out.
    I dont think this is energy-saver related.
    Many thnx for any help in adv. ---
    cheers,
    J.

    The problem with that is, it's hard to put it back together without assuring that you're not pinching the cable again.
    Instructions can be found here.
    As he says, the cable can be found at Small Dog Electronics:
    http://www.smalldog.com/product/43417
    If you need replacement feet, they can be found at MicroDoc.
    The specific link you need on PowerBook Tech's website can be found here.
    If it looks like too much for you to handle, you may want to check out DT & T Computer Services. Perhaps in a metropolitan area like Austin you can check the Yellow Pages and find a technician willing to match the price.
    At one point, DominionTech in Colchester, Vermont was offering the repair for $79.90, but I'm not sure if that price is still available.
    Good luck.

  • Werid problem when open two songs

    Hi,
    When I have one song already open and I try to open a different one whilst keeping the first one open a strange problem occurs. As soon as the second song is open it appears at the arrange page and then it flicks back to the first songs arrange page. I then select the windows menu option and select the second song and the same thing happens. It flick on to the second song and then back to the first again. Its driving me crazy.. any ideas?

    This is a common problem when trying to open 2 songs simultaneously. The solution seems to be (first) to close all open windows of both open songs including their arrange windows (but wihtout actually closing the songs in the process). Next, go to the Windows Menu and select song #1. Hit CMD-1 to open an arrange window for it. Re-size it so that it takes up only a portion of the screen. Then go back to the Windows Menu and select song #2. Again, hit CMD-1 to open an arrange window for this song too. You should now have two separate arrange windows visible and no switching. Lemme know if that works.

  • I have a problem when opening contacts

    i have a problem when i open contacts yellow message appear say u cunable to perform operation intenal error and continue loading contacts wzout any response
    can anyone help?

    never had this problem but it might be solved by a simpal re boot, if not and you got your contacts from a pc there might have been an error whilst sync'ing so you're probably best deleting all contacts then instead of a sync use the 'restore' function and just have the contacts selected, thats if you have a back up from your last phone on your pc (from a nokia phone) or you can sync with your old phone via bluetooth
    if all else fails open the contacts and when you get the error press Ctrl, Shift and P to copy the screen's image then post it here and one of the advanced members might be able to help

  • I have problem when opening a pdf page, my mouse control is hijacked to that tab when im on other tab, i cant scroll or use the middle rollling button, i have to click at the pdf tab then my control over the mouse middle button is restored.

    I think I have this problem even on earlier version. The thing is I set open link in new tab and not switch over to the opened tab. My habit is to open a pdf page in the background and let it load first. What happen is that when the pdf page finished loading ( i do not set to download it), it hijacks my middle mouse button control. When i scroll down or scroll up on my original tab, it wont scroll on the tab, but insttead it scrolls on the pdf tab. I have to click on the pdf tab, then i can use the scrolling function on other tabs back. As for when i opened several pdf tabs, it seems i have to click on the tab that just finished loading, that means several times until they all finish loading. It has been getting on my nerve lately. And all pdf trouble i search from google led to unable to open pdf, firefox hang or crash when opening a pdf and the likes.

    core-el, i don't see the advantage of that or i can't figure out how i'm supposed to use it. for starters, i have to click the mouse in order to get "add bookmark here" to open, which is no different than clicking on the star in the location bar, or right-clicking on the page. there are also options in the bookmarks toolbar, but they all require clicking the mouse & holding down the right button, etc.
    my goal is to use keystrokes only. typing on the keyboard, using both hands, using the space bar & my left pinky finger to tab over are all painless routines for me. as soon as i have to take my fingers off the keyboard & use the mouse, the pain begins.
    as i said, in older versions of firefox, all i had to do to bookmark a page was click ctrl>d, then tab over & arrow down, when appropriate, to find the folder & add the bookmark. for me, as a touch-typist whose speed is between 60 & 80 wpm, this is lightning fast.
    if i have this wrong, please correct me. i just see it as more mouse clicks that don't save me time or pain.

  • Previous image flashes on the screen occasionally when opening safari. Even after clearing history and cache.

    Occasionally an image from a previous website appears briefly when opening safari. I'm afraid it might do it with a site that has private information and other individuals use this ipad. Is this a problem fixed in the updates to the iOS or something different entirely.  The image flashes sometimes even after clearing history and cache.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Problem when opening files

    I need help. I have a new intel imac, which has been running very well. However, a month ago I noticed when opening a file it will take a number of seconds to show the contents. For example, I click on a file and the file window will pop up but the window will be empty for 6-8 seconds before the file contents will appear. It doesn't matter what I have in the file (docs, pdf, pics) file content is always slow to appear. Anyone have this happen? Anything suggestions on how to correct? Thanks.

    You need to post to the [intel forum|http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1110], but have you tried resetting the PRAM?

  • [CS4][AS] Detect problems when opening document

    Hi,
    Can anyone please help me?
    I'm trying to write a applescript that opens a indesign file, prints the document, and closes the file again.
    Everything works fine but when a file is opend, and there are some missing plugings, assignments, fonts, images, .... the script stops.
    How can I  detect if a error appears when opening a file? The file then has to be ignored...
    How can I detect if anything is missing before printing the file?
    Thanks
    the script:
    tell application "Adobe InDesign CS4"
    set myDocument to open inInputFile
    print active document using "HighresPreset" without print dialog
    close active document saving no
    end tell

    Hi:
    Sometimes you may want your script to proceed even if there are errors opening it. In that case, you can use the Preferences Suite -> Script Preference for user interaction level:
    tell application "Adobe InDesign CS4"
       tell script preferences
          return user interaction level -- see what it's set to currently
          --set user interaction level to never interact -- change it
       end tell
    end tell
