I didn't change anything. Yeah, yeah, standard answer. What happened, I
think, is that I had to close it and pack it in a hurry while the disk was
still spinning (my memory was being used up and I think it was swapping or
paging or whatevewr). Since that time (36 hours ago), it stopped shutting
down when I close the cover.
I'll try your suggestion nevertheless.
Thanks,
