Hey all, I am using my PB in clamshell mode quite extensively at work now. When I manually put it to sleep (apple menu/sleep) to go to lunch or whatever, it locks up when I wake it back up. The apps work, but the right half of the menu bar freezes up and then the whole comp as I start closing out apps, bad enough that I have to do a hard reset.
This time, I was able to launch activity monitor and observed the SystemUIServer process was not responding. I couldn't quit the process from within activity monitor, so I went to the terminal to kill the process after I found the PID. Killing the process turned off that half of the menu bar and seemed to solve the lockup, but I don't know how to (or if I can) restart the process.
I haven't added any new software in a while, but I am connecting to an exchange server over the network. When this first started happening, I tried shutting down any network reliant apps and loggin out of any mounted shares. That didn't seem to make a difference.
Anyone seen this before? Any suggestions would be helpful.
thanks.
Steve
