Yes, indeed, I'm referring to the vertical stripes (particularly those that
appear on the gray squares), and yes, I've opened it once. I haven't opened
it up again to check the connectors out of a lack of proper [sized] tools. I
will give it a go this weekend.

My libby gets a fair amount of usage -- I carry it to all of my lectures.
Unfortunately, it doesn't have its own padded bag or wallet (stupid
Targus/Port ... they discontinued their Libretto wallet just when I wanted
to get one) ... but I'm very careful about it in my bookbag.

Any other ideas, just for the cause? :)

> I take it you're referring to the alternating dark and light stripes? Have
you ever opened up the libby? Even if you haven't, try taking the keyboard
off and make REALLY sure the screen connector (the brown thing on the right)
is really tight (you don't need to take the screws out of the base, you
should be able to get to that connector just by flipping the keyboard up but
if you've never taken it apart before make real sure you don't disturb the
keyboard cable). I had a similar thing happen to me on a really old laptop
(a Compaq LTE Lite/25, black and white) when I nicked the screen cable
(except that was a simple edge connector and not a proper connector like
there is on a Libretto). The cable could well have worked loose through age
(from what I can see its not the most secure of connectors - I can see it
working loose just by picking the libby up by the corner too many times and
slightly flexing the case - but on the other hand I guess its about the only
way of getting that density of connectors in such a small area).
