Bumped Mouse and PB 10.3 froze...

[Jack Rodgers]

My al 17 was sleeping with the lid closed and I bumped the MS 
Trackball, hitting the key I had set to do the work of the F11 key in 
10.3. The white light stopped blinking. I repeated this several times 
over several days and sometimes when I opened the lid, it would 
progress to the dialog box for the password. THe last time when I left 
the lid closed for a longer period of time,  it just froze and stayed 
black after I left the lid closed to see if the light would come back 
on.

So, I think this confirms the problem we are experiencing with sleep 
while usb devices are connected or disconnected. Sometimes the mac 
wakes up and sometimes it doesn't requiring a forced shut down by 
holding down the powerkey for more than five seconds.

I don't know if bumping an attached Apple mouse will produce the same 
problem or if it is just limited to the books. This does explain a bit 
about why my Powerbook sometimes won't wake up after sleeping.
