Just like the subject says, my Wallstreet's LCD backlight won't turn back on after it wakes up from going to sleep. I also have to manually hit the the brightness control button (either bright or dark) upon each bootup to get the LCD backlight going.
I'm running 10.2.8, and when I originally loaded the OS in, I didn't have this problem. Maybe three months down the line, for no good reason, it started doing this.
Wallstreet 300mhz, 192mb RAM, 20g HD, CD/DVD, OS 10.2.8
This pops up from time to time. Here is what I wrote about it some time ago.
In my case, following a crash the backlighting would initially light up during boot but would later black out. Once the system booted I could hit the brightness button and it would light up. But if I put it to sleep and then woke it up the screen would not light up and there was no response from the brightness button. The solution I found was to restart in OS 9.2.2 then put it to sleep and wake it back up again. After that I could reboot into OS X and all would be well.
