04:16 < themusicgod1> last night I noticed a pure white screen came up while I was working.  Alt-fn'd to
                      terminal...process "Web Content" was using near 100% cpu.  Killed it, alt-fn'd back
                      to gnome, issue went away.  This happened maybe 2-3 times over a few hours.
                      Finally, it happened again, but when I went to alt-fn to terminal...white screen
                      stayed
04:17 < themusicgod1> ...unfortunately it stayed even after reboot.  Now acer travelmate x483-6691 won't
                      post (or at least the video won't initialize on POST)
04:17 < themusicgod1> I couldn't get it to display on external monitor, but notice that the keyboard keys
                      that control backlight do continue to control it
04:18 < themusicgod1> it sounds from the hard drive spinning up that it does try to boot, though I'm
                      unsure how far it gets(I'm trying to ssh in to no avail)

04:20 < themusicgod1> from some googling it seems like acers do have this issue, and that if it isn't
                      entirely hardware/connection related, the suggested solution is to by default not
                      suspend when the lid closes

04:22 < themusicgod1> I guess my question is it worth suggesting this setting for ubuntu for my particular
                      model?  It might prevent another laptop being effectively bricked
