I'm running MacOS X 10.2.1 on an iMac DV SE G3 400 and I've had this problem from my first day with OSX on...
Every time I wanna put my computer to sleep mode (either by pressing the power button or selecting it from the menu, doesn't matter), it turns off monitor & hard drive, but the power button keeps being green. After that, I can't get the computer to go on again, not by pressing the mouse buttons or a key on the keyboard. The weird thing is that it will work when I push the power button when no user is logged in. So yeah, this looks like a software problem, I figured that. I'm guessing it's OSX, because I tried quitting all programms and putting it to sleep then, it still won't work. I was just wondering if anybody else has had this problem, and if there's a solution for it...
Thanks, TheT
