No it doesn’t. Hibernation is a power-off mode where RAM is saved to disk and only occurs on a laptop when the battery runs down to 0% or thereabouts, or if you specifically put the machine into hibernate. You can tell because the screen comes on about 20% and you see a progress indicator as the image is read back into RAM. This takes a few seconds, even with an SSD. It could take a minute on a HD machine with a lot of RAM. > I have to touch the power button to bring it back. No you don’t. > In Snow leopard, I just had to move the mouse. Right, that doesn’t work anymore. It takes a button of some sort. Space bar, return, q, 0, whatever. Might even work with a mouse click. -- He remembered the knowledge. He remembered feeling his mind as cold as ice and limitless as the night sky. He remembered being summoned into reluctant existence at the moment the first creature lived, in the certain knowledge that he would outlive life until the last being in the universe passed to its reward, when it would be his job, figuratively speaking, to put the chairs on the tables and turn all the lights off. He remembered the loneliness. _______________________________________________ MacOSX-talk mailing list [email protected] http://www.omnigroup.com/mailman/listinfo/macosx-talk
