I am running openSUSE on Acer Aspire-One, 1.6/500MB/8GB
and it runs perfectly fine on AC power but whenever I switch to Battery power (on 100% charged state) after sometime (3-5 minutes) the Display goes Black Dead while power light is still green and cpu fan still running and then i have to forcefully shut it down by press and holding power button and restart it.
This is really strange problem and i have fresh installed the openSUSE two times but same problem.
Don’t know the solution, but you have to search in powermanagement: Systemsettings - Advanced
In there you can change the profile that causes your machine to suspend ( AFAICS that’s what it’s trying to do). Mind, the machine’s specs are just about minimum.
