Hi,

Sometimes (not always) the screen on my late 2011 MBP won't turn on after waking the machine up from sleep. Keyboard backlight is OK, and my external screen shows the desktop. But the internal screen just stays black.

I noticed it happens more often when the computer's been put to sleep for a longer period of time (over night for example).

A restart always solves the problem – but that's not really an elegant solution....

Has anyone else experienced this kind of problem? Is it a problem with the laptop, or the OS? (10.7.4)
