There have been numerous threads on many possible reasons why it takes 
so long to startup from sleep or not startup. I can't remember all of 
the possibilities, but one is putting your book to sleep while it is 
connected to a USB device, maybe even a Firewire device. You may have 
an extension or appl that crashes when you sleep.

People who have this problem might start a thread for or even search 
the archives for possible answers.

I have zero problems with Jaguar Dot 3 on a Tibook, although I did have 
a problem before with it freezing if I had not disconnected my dialup 
connection. No problem now. But then I am not running any haxies and 
very few login startups, etc.

And I don't have OS 9 installed and thus Classic is not running.  If 
you have Classic running you might have an extension problem.

At the very least you should update to Jaguar dot 3 and even do as I 
did and erase your drive and install everything fresh.
